Popis:	In this work, we propose novel micropatterned devices for reversible attachment inspired by climbing plants. We designed and fabricated bioinspired artificial microhooks (MH) using two-photon lithography. The MH-based adhesives were fully characterized in terms of attachment forces both as individual and arrays. Specifically, the adhesives were tested on several rough surfaces (i.e., fabrics and skin tissues), producing remarkable shear forces up to 13.8 N/cm2 . Also, a miniaturized mobile platform with directional hooks demonstrated climbing ability over slopes up to 45°. This research opens new opportunity for s https://youtu.be/UpCm_q8YaYA
