Zusammenfassung:In article number 1900548, Brad Holschuh, Julianna Abel, and co‐workers develop the first circumferentially contractile and topographic self‐fitting garment composed of NiTi‐based shape memory alloy (SMA) knitted actuators that dynamically conform to the unique shape and size of the body in response to a change in the garment's temperature. This research presents a paradigm shift for wearable applications by redefining garment fit to fully topographical conformation to the wearer through advanced materials and structures design.
