Stanford researchers unveil photonic skin that camouflages like an octopus
Introduction: A leap in camouflage technology Researchers at Stanford are pushing the boundaries of material science with a breakthrough dubbed “photonic skin” — a flexible, self-adapting surface that can mimic the dual camouflage tactics of cephalopods like octopuses and cuttlefish. By simultaneously altering color and texture, this synthetic skin aims to blend objects into diverse…
