a Schematics of the gripper for precise on-demand grasping and sorting via holographic feedback-driven control. b The LC director distribution, POM texture, and holographic image corresponding to the designed mission. Scale bar: 75 μm. c Gripper in the closed state (left) with light off, and in the blooming state (right) under light illumination. Scale bars: 1 cm. d The entire process of locating, catching, transferring, and releasing using the soft gripper. Light intensity: ~ 0.25 W/cm2. Scale bars: 1 cm
