In METASMART we propose to revolutionize the field of metasurfaces through industrial research of new production processes based on additive manufacturing techniques (multi-layer 2D printing of functional materials, 3D and 4D printing) that are versatile, precise and inexpensive.
To illustrate the great innovation potential of the METASMART concept, we will design a new generation of smart metasurfaces that can be implemented with the manufacturing techniques developed in the project. These metasurfaces will constitute a transversal platform with the potential to provide innovative solutions to several of the most relevant technological challenges for society and, in particular, to two of the challenges identified as priorities by the Strategic Innovation Committee of the Valencian Innovation Agency
