Harvard’s popupCAD origami-style 3D printable robots teach kids and beginners how to code

Recently, we learned that folding and unfolding structures, such as those found in nature or origami techniques, offer unique applications in space exploration, foldable batteries, biomedical devices and more. Furthermore, scientists have developed a way to 3D print self-folding structures that can be shipped flat, and then self-assemble on location when exposed to heat. In the future, these origami-style robots are predicted to be key contributors in the fields […]
