4D Printing at Georgia IOT

A research team from the Georgia Institute of Technology and the Singapore University of Technology and Design developed a new 4D process that demonstrated complex self-folding structures. The structures were 3D printed with combinations of smart Shape Memory Polymers that would allow complex shapes to self-assemble when exposed to a single source of heat. Previous 4D concepts could create complicated shapes and movements but required multiple sources of heat applied at specific intervals.
