01Summary
The sensor forms locally where UV strikes, enabling adaptive perception without pre-installed hardware. The material exhibits increasing sensitivity with repeated exposure and retains functionality after over four months of storage.
Summarised from the original article by an open-source model, then checked automatically: every number and English name must appear in the source. The original article is authoritative.
02Key points
- Robot grows UV sensor via in situ polymerization upon UV exposure.
- Sensor forms in response to light, changing resistance and triggering onboard actions.
- Sensitivity increases with repeated exposure, showing material memory effects.
- New hardware is created dynamically, enabling environmental adaptation.
