Methods for creating semolina flour-based shape-changing food from a multi-layered dough with at least one grooved surface. The dough layers have difference compositions including natural, staple and edible ingredients. The dough is exposed to stimuli during dehydration (e.g., baking) or hydration (e.g., boiling) processes.

Flour-based shape-changing food and related methods

Methods for creating self-folding materials that change shape in response to grooves created in the surface of the materials and when exposed to a stimuli. A tailored computational design tool, digital fabrication platform and mold for use with the methods also are provided.

Self-folding materials and methods, systems and devices for making the same

An efficient fabrication technique, including an optional design step, is used to create highly customizable wearable electronics. The method of fabrication utilizes rapid laser machining and adhesion-controlled soft materials. The method produces well-aligned, multi-layered materials created from 2D and 3D elements that stretch and bend while seamlessly integrating with rigid components such as microchip integrated circuits (IC), discrete electrical components, and interconnects. The design step can be used to create a 3D device that conforms to different-shaped body parts. These techniques are applied using commercially available materials. These methods enable custom wearable electronics while offering versatility in design and functionality for a variety of bio-monitoring applications.
