ABSTRACT
Oribotics is a hybrid field of research, joining two complex fields of study; origami and technology, specifically bot technology, such as robots, or intelligent computer agents, known as bots. The name is broken into two parts: ori, which comes from the Japanese verb oru, literally means “to fold,” and bot is the shortened form of the word robot. Oribotics is origami that is controlled by robot technology; it is paper or foldable material that will fold and unfold on command.
