4-dimensional printing (4D printing; also known as 4D bioprinting, active origami, or shape-morphing systems) uses the same techniques of 3D printing through computer-programmed deposition of material in successive layers to create a three-dimensional object. However, in 4D printing, the resulting 3D shape is able to morph into different forms in response to environmental stimulus, with the 4th dimension being the time-dependent shape change after the printing. It is therefore a type of programmable matter, wherein after the fabrication process, the printed product reacts with parameters within the environment (humidity, temperature, voltage, etc.) and changes its form accordingly. 4D printing gives 3D printed objects the ability to change their shape over time. The term “4D printing” refers to this additional fourth dimension: time. This technology is part of the project of MIT Self-assembly Lab. The purpose of this project is to combine technology and design to invent self-assembly and programmable material technologies aiming at reimagining construction, manufacturing, product assembly, and performance. The increasing need for flexible objects in various applications, such as self-folding packaging, adaptive wind turbines, etc., has fueled the emergence of 4D printing. Researchers are currently looking ahead of conventional 3D printing, which fabricates structures from a single material, to develop a meta-material structure. The meta-material structure is generated by combining different materials that provide superimposed structural responses when activated by external stimuli. The congruent printing of different materials will form material anisotropy, which enables the object to change the structure by bending, elongating, twisting, and corrugating along its
