Popis:	4D printing is a brand-new concept in the area of 3D printing, 3D printed structures will change physically or chemically when provided with the correct stimulus. This research investigates the effect of different designs and heat on the deployability of joints in 3D printed structures using the Shape Memory Effect (adding the 4D aspect). The investigation was supported by recent and relevant advancements in this narrow field. A 3D printed object embedded with elastic is used as a tool to explore the concept of 4D printing. From that a sequence of jointed designs were developed and manufactured to enable the final design to be developed. Using temperature as a stimulus the thermal properties of readily available Finally, a 4D gripper was designed and manufactured as a proof of concept. https://youtu.be/lQbNwTHqe_E
