- Does anyone know of a polymer or something that bends when an elcetric
- current is passed through it. It needs to be very fast acting,
- although if you only know of something that can point me in the right
- direction it would be very apreciated. I am working on something
- which would use that sort of thing. I guess it can also be a plastic
- that will vibrate extremely fast almost buzz. I guess piezo film does
- that but I don't know where to get just a small square or the like,
- except in a radioshack buzzer(which is not what I want).
-
- Any replies are appreciated.
-
- thank you,

- P.S. Where do I send my unsubscribe message for sci.virtual-worlds.
