  • Stimuli-responsive materials are commonly used in autonomous systems, whilst it is challenging to power them in a programmable manner. Here, Waniet al. use an optical fibre to control the shape of light-responsive liquid-crystal elastomers, which allow the device to detect and trap targeted objects.

  • Though light-driven self-oscillators offer the possibility of autonomous self-sustained motion, existing oscillators are limited in their range of oscillation modes. Here, the authors report freestyle cantilever-type photoactuators that show versatile oscillation modes.

  • Despite recent advances in light-active soft actuators, demonstrating reconfigurable actuation under the same stimuli remains a challenge. Here, the authors realize reconfigurable photoactuation in liquid crystal polymer networks based on a synergistic use of photochemical and photothermal effects.
