Origami, Folding Paper over the Web
نویسندگان
چکیده
Origami, paper folding, is a traditional Japanese art of folding paper into representation of 3-D figures. In general, it is quite difficult to learn origami from 2-D images such as diagrams and videos, because it requires inference of 3-D models from 2-D images. We are developing a system for folding origami over the Web, by designing a model of an origami folding process and by implementing a client-server system. Our system consists of three parts: the origami editor, the origami server, and the origami browser. The origami editor enables the user to create and edit origami projects, which are sequences of origami states and folding methods. The origami server receives the input data from the editor and generates a VRML 2.0 data stream, which represents a transition between two origami states. The VRML 2.0 data stream is then displayed by the origami browser, or a VRML 2.0 browser, as a 3-D origami figure in motion.

Estimation of Folding Operation Using Silhouette of Origami
In this paper, we address a method for supporting origami folding process on origami. We focus on a folding operation with a view to understanding the state of origami. We estimate the folding operations by using one camera. The folding operation can be estimated by comparing origami shapes of before and after a folding operation. A silhouette model is introduced to grasp the correspondence of ...
متن کاملModeling Origami for Computational Construction and Beyond
Computational origami is the computer assisted study of origami as a branch of science of shapes. The origami construction is a countably finite sequence of fold steps, each consisting in folding along a line. In this paper, we formalize origami construction. We model origami paper by a set of faces over which we specify relations of overlay and adjacency. A fold line is determined by a specifi...
متن کاملSymplectic Origami
An origami manifold is a manifold equipped with a closed 2-form which is symplectic except on a hypersurface where it is like the pullback of a symplectic form by a folding map and its kernel fibrates with oriented circle fibers over a compact base. We can move back and forth between origami and symplectic manifolds using cutting (unfolding) and radial blow-up (folding), modulo compatibility co...
متن کاملA Virtual Computational Paper Folding Environment Based on Computer Algebraic System
Many people enjoy doing origami, an art of paper folding, since childhood. Origami is a more powerful geometry construction tool than straight edge and compass. But there are some physical limitations with traditional origami on paper. In this study, a computational origami environment has been developed. Huzita axioms are implemented with a computer algebra system, which not only deals with fu...
متن کاملUnderstanding and Reconstruction of Folding Process
Origami is popular art of folding paper with long-time traditions. In its long history, a great number of traditional works have been accumulated, and moreover, more and more original works are designed and published into origami drill books etc. every year. For the majority of origami lovers, the origami drill books are probably the most convenient means for learning and enjoying origami makin...
