Soft Robotic Flowers In Bloom CHAPEL HILL, NC – Researchers at UNC-Chapel Hill, led by Associate Professor Ronit Freeman, have pioneered a revolutionary soft robotics technology: flower-shaped structures made from DNA-inorganic crystals that can be programmed to change shape in response to environmental cues. Fast to produce and control by the sequence and length of polymerized DNA within, these soft robots are capable of reversible shapeshifting. The… Continue reading Soft Robotic Flowers Bloom in New Research Released by the Freeman Lab
