In what may be the birth of cheap, easy-to-make robots, researchers have created complex machines that transform themselves from little more than a sheet of paper and plastic into walking ...

This guy built a whole robot out of paper, and it actually works. Check out the piece by piece construction below; watch until the end when it walks.

Start with paper; add Shrinky Dinks, a microprocessor, heat, and voila! It's not quite that easy. But this engineering project might one day lead to a printable, flat spacecraft that folds itself.

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University use conductive 3-D-printed material and paper to build actuators for use in delicate little robots.

Scientists have developed a “paper bird” robot that is small enough to fit inside the human body to perform operations. Built by researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Zurich, the ...
