Researchers have developed a novel device that couples magnetic fields and kirigami design principles to remotely control the movement of a flexible dimpled surface, allowing it to manipulate objects ...

(Nanowerk News) Cunjiang Yu, Bill D. Cook Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Houston, is reporting the development of a camera with a curvy, adaptable imaging sensor ...

A new approach to producing metamaterials draws on kirigami techniques to make three-dimensional, reconfigurable building blocks that can be used to create complex, dynamic structures. Because the ...

A new image sensor designed using the principles of kirigami patterns could lead to better images from cameras and endoscopes. Developed at the University of Houston and described in Nature ...

Anyone who has ever hurt their knee or elbow can attest to the particular frustration of trying to get a bandage to stick around a working joint. Scientists at MIT have developed a new type of bandage ...
