randdmag: Researchers from the Univ. of Bristol have shown it is possible to create artificial skin that can be transformed at the flick of a switch to mimic one of nature’s masters of camouflage, the squid. The research team has designed a smart materials system, inspired by biological chromatophores, which creates patterns that change and morph over time and mimic biological patterning.Read More - http://www.rdmag.com/news/2015/06/squid-inspires-camouflaging-smart-materials -- source link
