biOrigami: Using Self-folding Biological Substrates to Reduce Up-mass and Up-volume on Space Missions

Maker Faire Bay Area 2016

May 20th-22nd

Exhibit Engineering

We are the Stanford-Brown iGEM Team and are harnessing the regenerative properties of biology to create biOrigami—biological, self-folding origami—to reduce the mass, volume, and cost of payloads for space missions
