Figure 2: High-resolution image of the hydrogel microcilia.
The hydrogel microcilia developed in this work are so small that they cannot be seen with a conventional optical microscope. This image was captured using an advanced Scanning Electron Microscope, revealing the fine structure of the micro-scale actuators in detail.
