The origami crane diagram, using the Yoshizawa–Randlett system. The Yoshizawa–Randlett system is a diagramming system used to describe the folds of origami models. Many origami books begin with a description of basic origami techniques which are used to construct the models.
Axioms 1 through 6 were rediscovered by Japanese-Italian mathematician Humiaki Huzita and reported at the First International Conference on Origami in Education and Therapy in 1991. Axioms 1 though 5 were rediscovered by Auckly and Cleveland in 1995. Axiom 7 was rediscovered by Koshiro Hatori in 2001; Robert J. Lang also found axiom 7.
Computational origami results either address origami design or origami foldability. [3] In origami design problems, the goal is to design an object that can be folded out of paper given a specific target configuration. In origami foldability problems, the goal is to fold something using the creases of an initial configuration.
Sipho Mabona – Swiss and South African origami master [1] [6] who created a life-size elephant from a single piece of paper. [3]Jun Maekawa – software engineer, mathematician, and origami artist known for popularizing the method of utilizing crease patterns in designing origami models
With a construction system that can trisect angles, such as mathematical origami, more numbers of sides are possible, using Pierpont primes in place of Fermat primes, including -gons for equal to 7, 13, 14, 17, 19, etc. [6] Geometric Origami provides explicit folding instructions for 15 different regular polygons, including those with 3, 5, 6 ...
Modular origami or unit origami is a multi-stage paper folding technique in which several, or sometimes many, sheets of paper are first folded into individual modules or units and then assembled into an integrated flat shape or three-dimensional structure, usually by inserting flaps into pockets created by the folding process. [3]
In 1954, his first monograph, Atarashii Origami Geijutsu (New Origami Art) was published. In this work, he established the Yoshizawa–Randlett system of notation for origami folds (a system of symbols, arrows and diagrams [3]), which has become the standard for most paperfolders. The publishing of this book helped Yoshizawa out of his poverty.
The modern growth of interest in origami dates to the design in 1954 by Akira Yoshizawa of a notation to indicate how to fold origami models. [3] [4] The Yoshizawa-Randlett system is now used internationally. Today the popularity of origami has given rise to origami societies such as the British Origami Society and OrigamiUSA. The first known ...
