Have seen a bunch of stuff from these guys- this video seems to represent the folding / origami style for visual demonstration purposes as most people have seen a pop up book or origami in the past. I believe they intend to use the folding method for nano construction of electronic components. (perhaps too advanced for the intended audience?) I believe - with 3D printing technology , folks will begin to think differently about how to manufacture and examples like this will begin to overtake traditional forms of engineering. For myself - that hardest thing to overcome when designing for 3D printing is resource management. for instance: do you want to spend 10 hours designing a part that is optimized for printing time, material usage and overall integrity. - that triangle of 'Good' - 'fast' - 'cheep'

[@j.txx.7968]

Of course, advertisements would emphasise on the more impressive functions a product have. Rationalising with them, it is indeed difficult to cover every function it has.

If done well, the next advertisements should be for their more commonly used products in daily lives. ( Do correct me if I interpreted you wrongly )

Machines that can build the folding neccesary have only recently become available (see Adam Savage's tour of MITs Center for Bits and Atoms).
