There's a lot happening lately in materials applications technology, this being one example. Another is the colour-shifting capability of some materials as an electrical field is applied, and one interesting development of a gelled fluid that remains semiliquid in its usual state, but turns solid when subjected to an electrical current.
All sorts of interesting possibiolities arise for such things, either seperately or in concert with each other.
