Synthetic artificial skin has been developed that can change color and texture at the same time

A team from Stanford University has developed synthetic artificial skin that can change color and texture simultaneously, mimicking the camouflage ability of octopuses. The technology, published in the journal Nature, consists of two polymer film layers that can control color and texture. This innovation could be applied in various fields, including robotics and displays, and may eventually lead to the creation of a 'smart skin' that adapts to its environment.
