Origami Kinetic Sculpture

This kinetic sculpture was a popular piece in the exhibit titled "Folding Paper: The Infinite Possibilities of Origami" at the BYU Museum of Art. It was designed by mechanical engineering students in the Compliant Mechanisms Research Group using the Offset Panel Technique, a technique co-developed by the BYU CMR and Dr. Robert Lang for accommodating thick materials in origami design. The original pattern is called the square twist and the structure is 8'x8' with 1" thick panels. Video is 2x speed.
