A team of engineers and scientists from the University of Pennsylvania ( Penn ), Harvard University and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) invented 3D-printed, multi-stable structures capable of changing colors in response to stress.

By using CLCEs, the team could 3D print flexible structures with a special ink that changes color when stressed.

The potential applications of these innovative materials are vast.
