Hirogami is a 3D action/platformer inspired by the ancient Japanese art of origami (paper folding). Hirogami invites players to a world where everything has been crafted to convey the physical, often ...

The tree, unlike any other in the world, is decorated with close to 20,000 origami cranes. "There's so many cranes it looks like it's snow flocked. That's what's so amazing," said Linda Mihara ...

Researchers recently shared details on creating foldable, self-locking structures by using multi-material 3D printing. These origami-inspired designs can transition between flat and three ...

Now researchers from Georgia Institute of Technology and Peking University have found a way of directly building reconfigurable origami assemblages using 3D printing technology. The structures can ...

Back in 1999, Erik Demaine was a PhD student who created an algorithm that determined the folding patterns necessary to turn a piece of paper into any 3D shape. However, the algorithm was far from ...

Scientists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have appropriated a less-common technique of origami known as "collapse ... reversibly self-folded 3D structures around a millimeter in ...

To do that, the team 3D printed a ceramic structure based on the Miura-ori origami pattern -- which is a way to fold something flat, like paper, so it takes up less space but stays flat overall ...

New research lets would-be DNA origami masters design the shape ... Basically, all the user needs to do is provide a 3D shape with a closed surface. It could be a polyhedron, something more ...

Recently, scientists have explored some very different 3D fabrication strategies such as kirigami and origami that make use of the science of cutting and folding 2D materials/structures to create ...
