摘要：
A device (100) is provided. The device includes at least one SMM component (115, 120, 130) fabricated from a shape memory material (SMM). The SMM component is configured to change shape in response to receiving a stimulus. The SMM component is also configured to deploy from a device body (105) of the device allowing the device to change shape in an advantageous way. A method (1000) implemented by a device (100) is also provided. The method includes changing (1010) a shape of an SMM component (115, 120, 130) of the device in response to receiving a stimulus. The SMM component is fabricated from an SMM. The method also includes deploying (1015) the SMM component from a device body (105) of the device allowing the device to change shape in an advantageous way.
