Last year wrote about the team's Ffxiv Gil novel method for overcoming thechallenges of manufacturing such a tiny yet complex frame --imitate pop-up books. The idea is to layer-up the differentflexible laser-cut materials, each joined together by flexiblehinges. It creates a kind of scaffold that will pop-up into placeonce lifted apart with pins. Before hand, the team was gluing eachtiny piece and each tiny joint into place by hand -- a virtuallyimpossible task.

The sheets of material are made from polyester filmto retain the lightness and flexibility needed, but reinforced withcarbon fibre ribs. Strips of piezoelectric ceramic across the bodyact like muscles, expanding and contracting whenever an electriccharge is run through them.
