Algorithm generates practical paper-folding patterns to produce any 3D structure
MIT’s Erik Demaine improves on his landmark, 18-year-old algorithm for generating origami folding patterns for any 3-D shape. The new work adds the requirement of “watertightness,” or minimizing the number of seams in an origami approximation of a closed surface.
