This project explores the development of synthetic materials that can sense and respond to their environment, known as odd solids. By investigating their unique properties, the research aims to create materials capable of complex behaviors like locomotion and pattern formation.
How can we create animate synthetic materials, able to sense, compute, and respond to their environment?
To achieve these animate properties, one emerging class of materials stands out: odd solids.
Odd solids use microscopic energy injection to break basic symmetries like Newtons 3rd law, resulting in far-from-equilibrium phenomena forbidden in passive materials.
These phenomena promise a toolkit for designing animate functionalities like robust locomotion and pattern formation.
However, to real…
