Front Cover: Bilayer plastic films deposited with molecular azobenzene chromophores show fast and strong photomechanical response. Multi‐beam irradiation of these films allows for unique curing capabilities, which can be used for photo‐driven robot hands to precisely manipulate objects. This provides a new and simple strategy to freely tailor full‐plastic photomechanical device possessing compound movements with battery‐free and remote control. Further details can be found in the article by Z. Liu, R. Tang, D. Xu, J. Liu,* and H. Yu* on page 1171.
