Adaptable Tile‐Based Pneumatic Origami through Structurally Coupled Localized Actuation
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This article presents tile‐based pneumatic origami structures with rigid tiles and flexible fabric creases, achieving adaptable properties including morphing shape, selective multistability, and tunable stiffness. Independently pressurized folding bladders at each crease enable structurally coupled localized actuation of origami structures.
