In the realm of microrobotics, small and malleable machines are, in the meme-y words of Mugatu, so hot right now. Scientists appear to be doing everything they can to crack the code behind what it ...

Origami has become known as a miracle technique for designers. Elegant compliant mechanisms can leverage the material ...

A team of Korean researchers have created a display that can be folded like origami. The so-called 3D foldable display can be folded into airplanes, pyramids, and more. It has a number of downsides at ...

"What we have here is the proof of concept of an integrated system for manufacturing complex origami. It has tremendous potential applications," said Glaucio H. Paulino, a professor at the School of ...

3D micro-/nanofabrication holds the key to build a large variety of micro-/nanoscale materials, structures, devices, and systems with unique properties that do not manifest in their 2D planar ...

Japanese scientists and origami masters hope to launch a paper airplane from space and learn from its trip back to Earth. It's no joke. A prototype passed a durability test in a wind tunnel this month ...

Origami has inspired the design of structures with unique properties, finding a huge range of potential uses, including soft robots and stretchable electronics. Now researchers from Georgia Institute ...
