Engineers have created a configurable robot that can transform into various structures, which has potential applications for ...

Some origami mask designs can also improve the wearer's comfort. The folds give the mask structure and prevent the mouth from touching the material, eliminating the discomfort of a damp mask on ...

Researchers are using the geometry of paper folding to come up with futuristic antennas that can retract and compress.

“In its unfolded flat state, our origami structure tumbles chaotically in the wind, similar to an elm leaf. But switching to the folded state changes the airflow around it and enables a stable ...

"Surface to Structure," an exhibit at New York's Cooper Union running June 19 to July 3, showcases the complexity of modern origami with 134 works by 88 artists.
