A dual-responsive Co-MnO2 possessing actuation and an additional response of resistivity change in response to ultra-low visible light is introduced, with the tunable actuation triggered by a simple “activation” and Co-doping treatment. The intrinsic self-sensing, tunable and high-performing actuation in response to vis light signal is utilized to design intelligent robotics devices (e.g., self-adapting load-lifting system and auto-self-sorting finger).
