But one of the key hurdles when bringing origami or kirigami to engineering is that these techniques often make things rather ...

If you are an experimental foodie, this might be just the thing you’re looking for. Researchers with the MIT Tangible Media Group have announced the successful creation of edible, shape-shifting ...

Scientists have developed software that makes it easier to predict the three-dimensional shape that will result from a given DNA template. While the software doesn't fully automate the design process, ...

The art of folding paper, or origami, is pretty well known. Almost everyone has made a little crane out of square of brightly-colored paper. But, have you ever heard of the more sophisticated Kirigami ...

Scientists have invented a major new advance in DNA nanotechnology. Dubbed 'single-stranded origami,' their new strategy uses one long, thin noodle-like strand of DNA, or its chemical cousin RNA, that ...

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 ...

Inspired by the paper-folding art of origami, North Carolina State University engineers have discovered a way to make a single plastic cubed structure transform into more than 1,000 configurations ...
