Plants don't just grow, they build. From towering trees to delicate flowers, complex plant shapes are sculpted with remarkable precision. Now a study by biologists and biophysicists at Université de ...

An AI method enables the generation of sharp, high-quality 3D shapes that are closer to the quality of the best 2D image models. Previous approaches typically generated blurry or cartoonish 3D shapes.

Magnetic composite with stiffness control allows programmable 3D shape shifting for use in soft robots, tactile interfaces, and reconfigurable displays. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Cephalopods such as ...
