Researchers remotely control sequence in which 2-D sheets fold into 3-D structures

Researchers remotely control sequence in which 2-D sheets fold into 3-D structures 03/08/2017 07:00 AM EST Inspired by origami, researchers have found a way to remotely control the order in which a two-dimensional (2-D) sheet folds itself into a three-dimensional (3-D) structure. The folds are controlled by manipulating light.
