Self-assembling objects from MIT – a new frontier for manufacturing?

MIT’s tangible media group presents ‘aeroMorph, the programmable paper, plastic, and fabric self-folding origami-like inflatable structures. the project showcases a design, simulation, and fabrication pipeline for making transforming objects. The project is aimed at creating inflatable structures that autonomously fold like origami to create the end desired object. MIT’s tangible media group‘s ‘aeroMorph’ works with a software…
