Organic Ink Multi-Material 3D Printing of Sustainable Soft Systems.

Drawing inspiration from nature, soft materials are at the core of a transformation toward adaptive and responsive engineered systems, capable of conquering demanding terrain and safe when interacting with biological life. Despite recent advances in 3D printing of soft materials, researchers are still far from being able to print complex soft systems where a multitude of different components need to work together symbiotically. Closing this gap necessitates a platform that unites diverse materials into one synergetic process.
