Daniel Piker - Deployable/Transformable Structures

While watching this video I thought to myself "I think now I can be that international super agent like James Bond I've always thought about starting a few minutes ago". ...or a sweet ninja.

This video by Daniel Piker is so sweet! Look at the possibilities and the transformations of his objects! can you imagine if Billy Mays of Oxy Clean or Vince of ShamWow fame have gotten a hold of him?! You'd be getting the weirdest most amazing products you'll ever see in infomercial history!

It's a new type of origami that can be more useful than a paper crane. Not that paper crane's aren't useful. They're great at parties.

By Daniel Piker:
"Some of my old experiments with deployable, transformable and bistable structures, auxetics and linkages. One day I might get back to developing some of these further, but until then I thought rather than let them sit and gather dust I'd put them up here, in case anyone else is interested. I'd be happy to share the folding/cutting patterns if you want to make your own.
