HIGHLIGHTS
SUMMARY
Natural living systems have organs that can deform and exhibit different shapes to carry out their biological roles even under challenging environments, e_g, subzero temperatures and dry environments. Hydrogels, particularly tough hydrogels, with abundant properties and functionalities, are anticipated to be ideal for artificial shape morphing due to their intriguing mechanical properties, e_g, high stretchability and toughness. Various anisotropic elements can be encoded into the hydrogels and can be triggered to guide the shape morphing by exposing to different stimuli, e_g, pH, solvents, light, magnetic_fields, and electric fields. More recently, the authors developed a . . .
