1. Potential applications of the light-induced actuator.
Potential applications of the light-induced actuator. (A) Schematic diagram of the sunlight-induced actuation experiment and (B) demonstration of the sunlight-induced actuation at ~15 mW/cm2. (C) Biomimicked sensitive plant under NIR light of 200 mW/cm2 and (D) hairs by patterned plating under Vis light of 100 mW/cm2. (E) Schematic diagram of an actuator with two hinges that serves as a walking bot capable of walking toward flashing Vis light of ~50 mW/cm2. Scale bars, 5 mm.
