A reconfigurable interactive interface for controlling robotic origami in virtual environments

Jamie Paik, Harshal Arun Sonar, Zhenishbek Zhakypov, Jian-Lin Huang

Origami shape transformation is dictated by predefined folding patterns and their folding sequence. The working principle of robotic origami is based on the same principle: we design quasi-two-dimensional tiles and connecting hinges and define and program ...
