An End-to-End Approach to Self-Folding Origami Structures.

This paper presents an end-to-end approach to automate the design and fabrication process for self-folding origami structures. Self-folding origami structures are robotic sheets composed of rigid tiles and joint actuators. When they are exposed to heat, each joint folds into a preprogrammed angle. Those folding motions transform themselves into a structure, which can be used as body of 3-D origami...
