A three-dimensional actuated origami-inspired transformable metamaterial with multiple degrees of freedom

Typically, most structures and devices that can be reconfigured are designed with application specific requirements. Inspired by modular origami ideas, Overveldeet al. present a mechanical metamaterial enabling the design of three-dimensional structures of arbitrary architecture with tunable shape,...
