In this paper we summarize our results of analysing different construction materials and programming languages in robotic workshops and present a solution how to enhance the “Handy Crickets” technology to be used for a different application domain namely smart fashion. Smart fashion proved to be a topic equally attractive for girls and boys. We describe our experiments in workshops with childre...

Although the famous brittle characteristics of molecular crystals are unfavorable when they used as flexible smart materials (FSMs), an increasing number organic crystal-based FSMs have been reported recently. This breaks perception their stiff and properties promises a bright future for basic research practical applications. Crystalline present considerable advantages over polymer under certai...
