Researchers at North Carolina State University and Duke University have developed a way to assemble and pre-program tiny structures made from microscopic cubes - "microbot origami" - to change their ...

Explore the magic of origami, from its rich history to basic folds, and start your paper folding journey with this engaging guide. Have you ever wondered how a simple piece of paper can be transformed ...

Harvard researchers have designed a foldable material that they say can change size, volume and shape while being versatile, tunable and self actuated. The material is said to be able to fold flat to ...

A team of researchers from Harvard’s John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences has created a new foldable, self-actuating 3D material structure inspired by an origami technique called ...

A new type of material based on folding cubes can be programmed to change its shape, size and stiffness, collapsing into a flat sheet that can be driven over before popping back up again. Engineers ...

Researchers have developed a way to assemble and pre-program tiny structures made from microscopic cubes -- 'microbot origami' -- to change their shape when actuated by a magnetic field and then, ...
