Flexible antennas could be the future

Traditionally, antennas are made from copper and come in a rigid yet delicate form factor. Well, glad to say that with the advent of technology, all of it could change in the future, where the typical copper antenna will be phased out by an alloy version which can be bent in just about any direction before returning to its native shape. This is made possible courtesy of micro liquid metal chambers located within that form the building blocks of the antenna. As with most promising technology, the military will benefit from it first before it reaches the general populace.
