Researchers have folded their way into a groundbreaking new family of origami patterns. Dubbed bloom patterns, because they resemble flowers as they unfold, the new class of origami shapes holds great ...

The art of origami goes back centuries -- enough time to explore every possible crease that can be made in a sheet of paper, one might think. And yet, researchers have now found a new class of origami ...

Researchers created a proof-of-concept DNA origami device that encodes messages as nano-Morse patterns and conceals them ...

The ancient Japanese art of paper-folding, or origami, is already inspiring the design of the next generation of space vehicles, but now there's a new family of origami shapes that could make them ...

From ancient traditions to modern engineering, origami has travelled across centuries and continents to become one of the ...

Scientists are exploring a new class of origami structures that could help design and build different shapes for use in space. These structures are expected to be even more compact and reliable.
