Once inside, a magnetic field guides and unfolds it at the target site, where it releases medicine in a controlled and steady ...

A new 3D printing technique can create paper-thin "magnetic muscles," which can be applied to origami structures to make them move.

This novel fabrication process makes lightweight, expandable, 3D structures. Engineers at The Georgia Institute of Technology have merged the ancient art of folding paper, origami, with 3D printing to ...

Researchers recently shared details on creating foldable, self-locking structures by using multi-material 3D printing. These origami-inspired designs can transition between flat and three-dimensional ...

An origami-based magnetic muscle drives two robots. One precisely introduces medicine into the human body, the other is a ...

INDIANAPOLIS, March 28, 2023 — The ancient art of origami is well known for transforming sheets of paper and other foldable materials into complex 3D shapes. But now, chemical engineers have extended ...

Researchers in Simon Fraser University’s Additive Manufacturing Lab are replicating a distinctive artform—the subtle folding of origami—to create 3D printable technologies to aid in the fight against ...

Scientists have created paper-thin “magnetic muscles” that can make tiny origami robots move—opening up exciting new ...
