Inspired by the paper-folding art of origami, engineers have discovered a way to make a single plastic cubed structure transform into more than 1,000 configurations using only three active motors.

Harvard University scientists have built the world's first working "Transformer" robot, inspired by the ancient Japanese paper-folding art of origami.

Japanese engineers have unveiled a robot that transforms into a car that can actually carry people on board. The 3.7-metre-tall two-seater robot "J-deite RIDE" can transform into a sportscar in a ...
