Researchers have developed a new computer-aided approach that streamlines the design process for origami-based structures, making it easier for engineers and scientists to conceptualize new ideas ...

When people are dropped into the most dangerous of conditions – as when disaster strikes, or during exploration of another ...

The ancient art of paper folding has come a long way from planes and cranes. "Surface to Structure," an exhibit at New York's Cooper Union running June 19 to July 3, showcases the complexity of modern ...

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 ...

Origami is the ancient Japanese art of paper folding. One uncut square of paper can, in the hands of an origami artist, be folded into a bird, a frog, a sailboat, or a Japanese samurai helmet beetle.
