Snapshots of NIR light responsive CB-LCE composite actuating in air. A CB–LCE sling in a “U” shape, mimicking the mechanism by which mesh slings for stress urinary incontinence support urethra (top). CB-LCE sling widens its radius of curvature after the application of 300 mW/cm2 NIR light for 30 s at a 15 mm distance and reaching a temperature of 43 °C (bottom). Scale bar: 5 mm.
