The image created by Syuji Fujii and colleagues shows polypyrrole grains synthesized by aqueous chemical oxidative polymerization in the presence of bis(2‐ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate sodium salt as both a dopant and a hydrophobizing agent. Liquid marble can be stabilized with the dried polypyrrole grains doped with dioctyl sulfosuccinate. And motions of the liquid marble can be driven by near‐infrared laser irradiation‐induced marangoni flow on planar air‐water surface. In addition, the release of internal liquid can be achieved by controlled disruption of the liquid marble via external stimulus application.DOI: 10.1002/app.51009
