Zusammenfassung:Mechano‐Optical Sensors In article number 2104702, Osamu Tsutsumi and co‐workers report a multilayered concept for tuning the recovery response of cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers, enabling a flexible, stretchable, sensitive mechano‐optical sensor with on‐demand spatiotemporal resolution. The mechanical strain imposed on the sensor can be visualized and quantified using a commercially available camera as well as the naked eye.
