Here’s a little robot that knows how to dress for the occasion. Scientists at MIT have built a bot that can, with a little origami action, change its shape from a walking bot to a rolling or even a ...
These configurable bots could launch flat and then be assembled in space. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. A newly designed ...
A new 3D printing technique can create paper-thin "magnetic muscles," which can be applied to origami structures to make them move. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech news updates. By ...
An international team of researchers has recently showcased a tiny origami robot that can be swallowed and controlled by external magnetic fields. According to Daniela Rus, an electrical engineering ...
Just as origami can transform a piece of paper into a three-dimensional work of art, scientists have now used the techniques to transform thin, flimsy materials like polyester into incredibly strong ...
Researchers have developed a new 3D printing technique that creates paper-thin ‘magnetic muscles’ capable of bringing origami structures to life to deliver medicine inside the body. A crawler robot ...
A team of scientists from North Carolina State University (NC State) has produced an ultra-thin magnetic film using 3D printing that can be applied to origami structures. The resulting actuator can be ...
