High-powered satellites use electromagnetic waveguides to deliver energy from one component to another. Typically, they are ...

Skoltech researchers and their colleagues from Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, Germany, Nanjing University of China, ...

Origami isn’t just child’s play. The math and science behind paper folding can revolutionize how we make all kinds of technologies. Roboticist Shuguang Li used origami to develop soft, strong, and ...

Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are technologies that allow users to immerse themselves in digital worlds or enhance their surroundings with computer-generated filters or images, ...

Using modular units can build a housing project quickly, officials said, saving money and meeting more of the need in Orange County.

It is an obvious extension of this research to convert static DNA structures into machines. DNA is not the natural choice of material to build active structures with because it lacks the structural ...

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 ...

Paper folding is a form of art that most people today associate with Japan. Indeed, Japanese origami is arguably the most well-known type of paper folding today. What is perhaps less well-known is ...

We address the problem of de novo design and synthesis of nucleic acid nanostructures, a challenge that has been considered in the area of DNA nanotechnology since the 1980s and more recently in the ...
