Fig. 2: Dynamically refreshable 3D structures enabled through a spatiotemporal buckling design strategy.

a Schematic of a flat 3 × 3 interleaved assembly array, with experimental results showing two distinct 3D configurations under different operation matrixes M. b Schematic illustration of a flat animal-shaped structure with four angled interleaved assemblies, with FEA and experimental results showing three different 3D configurations under different operation matrices M. The formed 3D configurations mimic the postures of a turtle. c Photograph and schematic illustration of a tactile display formed by a 32 × 24 interleaved assembly array for potential applications in remote interaction and visual impaired education.
