Scientists Develop Material and Structures That Transform with a Single String Pull
Originally Published 17 days ago — by Gizmodo
Researchers at MIT have developed a new kirigami-inspired material that can transform into various 3D structures with a simple pull of a string, enabling applications like medical devices, foldable robots, and space habitats. The process uses an algorithm to design flat grids that morph into complex shapes, demonstrating ease of use and potential for scalable deployment.
