The techniques combine novel manufacturin g processes to\nproduce polymer-based products ranging from gecko-inspired adhesives\nto stretchable electronics and soft robotics. Combining diffe rent\nresearch disciplines\, including micro- and nanofabrication\, with\n larger scale 3D-printing technologies has opened up new opportunities\nfo r the manufacturing of new smart materials\, bio-inspired surfaces\nand we arable electronics. Highlights include direction sensitive\nadhesives for pick-and-place assembly\, mechanically reprogrammable\nsoft robots\, and multi-material FDM additive manufacturing processes\nthat can print hard p lastics\, rubbers and stretchable metal wires in a\nsingle part.\n DTSTAMP:20250519T015329Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
