…and a team in SFU's Additive Manufacturing Lab have researched how the intracies of origami and bioinspired motion can help robots perform diagnostic procedures. They have replaced the traditional blood-pressure check by replicating the folding mechanisms of the leech in their design of 3D-printable origami sensors. The leech-inspired origami (LIO) sensors can be integrated onto the fingertips of a humanoid…
