An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides an optical communication system. The optical communication system can comprise a self-powered sensor and an optical array. The self-powered sensor can be configured to receive a mechanical input and generate an electrical signal corresponding to the mechanical input. The optical array can be configured to receive the electrical signal and generate an optical output. The optical output can correspond to the mechanical input.

Self-powered wireless optical communication systems and methods

Systems and methods are described herein for producing a model of a biological tissue, comprising a primary elastic material formed in the shape of an organ, and a secondary stiffener material embedded in the primary elastic material, wherein the secondary stiffener material is formed into a metamaterial design that increases the elastic modulus of the model in at least one predetermined direction. Models in accordance with embodiments mimic both the shape and mechanical properties of the organ they depict.
