patterning

"We would see different outcomes of the patterning when we would start with genetically identical cells in different numbers," said Morsut.

Their discovery that simple stitch patterning can alter a fabric's elasticity points to knitting's potential for cutting-edge interactive technologies like soft robotics, wearables, and haptics.

"The visual cortex itself changes. It becomes more similar to the areas around it. There are still a lot of questions about how development controls this patterning."

The pictures’ flatly painted skin and two-dimensional patterning in textiles and wallpaper are set into shimmering visual motion.

They are now working to improve component accuracy by optimizing the light patterning method and by incorporating material parameters into the printing process.
