Engineers have developed a class of origami structures that unfold in one smooth motion to create flower-like shapes, which ...

Princeton engineers are twisting, stretching and creasing structures to create a new type of origami, one that changes its ...

Engineers were able to develop materials with fine control over material properties like stiffness. For example, a prosthetic ...

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 ...

These could be the stuff of nightmares — if they weren’t so damn cute. Scientists at the University of Washington have developed adorable little electronic “microfliers,” the size of a postage stamp, ...

An curved arrow pointing right. Following is a transcript of the video. Narrator: This artist creates intricate origami designs that change shapes. Jasen Zhang uses modular-origami techniques to make ...

If you're trying to distribute environmental sensors over a wide area by dropping them from a drone, you definitely don't want them all landing in the same place. In order to keep that from happening, ...

You can’t reinvent the wheel, it is often said. To which researchers from Seoul National University, Harvard University, and Hankook Tire and Technology Co. go, “hold my beer.” This origami wheel has ...

DNA origami, a fascinating technology that uses algorithms to design self-assembling 2- and 3D nanostructures using DNA helices, has added a new member to its growing catalog: multilayered ...
