This lengthening and shrinking along the length of the crystal lattice, called the  piezoelectric effect, causes the leg of this tuning fork to move back and forth.

这种沿着晶格长度的伸长收缩称为压电效应，它导致音叉的腿来回移动。

These generate power and send it to a control board that operates a pair of piezoelectric actuators – clever materials that work a bit like a muscle and contract when a voltage passes across them.

它产生电能并其发送到控制板，该控制板操作一对压电致动器 - 聪明的材料有点像肌肉，当电压通过它时会收缩。

First we fill them up with the piezoelectric material, which is represented in yellow in the bottom figure, and then we fill it up with the stimuli-responsive material that is the light blue in the bottom figure.

首先用压电材料填充它，在下图中用黄色表示，然后用刺激响应材料填充它，在下图中用浅蓝色表示。
