Programmable matter refers to materials that can change their physical properties and configurations in response to external stimuli or programmed instructions. This concept is closely linked to ...

Definition: Programmable Matter refers to materials that can change their physical properties (shape, density, modality, conductivity) in real-time, based on user input or autonomous sensing. This ...

A future concept whereby material objects change their physical shape via programming. Numerous examples have been proposed such as self-repairing and self-configuring components as well as ...

His research interests include distributed intelligent MEMS (DiMEMS), distributed algorithms for modular robots and Programmable Matter. He is currently leading the programmable matter project. J.
