The formation of 3D objects composed of shape memory polymers for flexible electronics is described. Layer‐by‐layer photopolymerization of methacrylated semicrystalline molten macromonomers by a 3D digital light processing printer enables rapid fabrication of complex objects and imparts shape memory functionality for electrical circuits.
