(a) The amplified vibration is converted into large-displacement wing-flapping motion, demonstrating displacement amplification.
(b) A slingshot-like setup converts the amplified vibration into impact motion, demonstrating force amplification.
(c) External mechanical stimuli switch the system from a standby state to a memorized state, enabling volatile and non-volatile mechanical memory modes.
