Self-folding origami machines powered by chemical reaction
A Cornell-led collaboration harnessed chemical reactions to make microscale origami machines self-fold -- freeing them from the liquids in which they usually function, so they can operate in…
Self-folding origami honeycombs pave the way to sustainable protective packaging
In a recently published study, researchers from SIT, Japan, developed a cost-effective method of making paper sheets…
