New devices morph and transform - like Iron Man's suit
BYU researchers unfold new class of mechanical devices
It took just over 10 years, but real science has finally caught up to the science fiction of Iron Man’s transforming exoskeleton suit. In a paper published Feb. 13, 2019, in Science Robotics, engineers at Brigham Young University (#BYU) detail new technology that allows them to build complex mechanisms into the exterior of a structure without taking up any actual space below the surface.
This new class of origami-inspired mechanisms, called “developable mechanisms,” get their name from developable surfaces, or materials that can take on 3-D shapes from flat conformations without tearing or stretching, like a sheet of paper or metal. They reside in a curved surface (like, say, the arms of Iron Man’s suit) and can transform or morph when deployed to serve unique functions. When not in use, they can fold back into the surface of the structure seamlessly.
“These new discoveries make it possible to build complex machines that integrate with surfaces to be very compact, but can deploy and do complex tasks,” said researcher Larry Howell, professor of mechanical engineering at BYU. “It opens up a whole new world of potential devices that have more functions, but are still very compact.”
Making hyper-compact mechanisms is something increasingly important as manufacturers across medical, space and military industries are constantly working to get more complex functionality in less space. Potential applications of developable mechanisms include:
• Medical: Surgical instruments that can both cut materials and deploy lights simultaneously during minimally-invasive surgery
• Vehicles and airplanes: Storage components that could deploy from the inner surface of the fuselage and be completely out of the way when not in use
• Military: Quad-rotor drones that have adjustable wing spans for fitting in tight spaces
• Space: Wheels that could deploy claws for rock crawling, which could be especially useful to an interplanetary rover.
This new class of mechanical structures evolved from Howell and colleague Spencer Magleby’s work on origami-based engineering, done in collaboration with origami artist Robert Lang. From solar arrays for NASA to bulletproof barriers for police officers, their work has generated national and international coverage. As the group of researchers moved to curved origami principles, the mathematics revealed a new way of doing more complex machines.
“Origami was a stepping stone to this,” Magleby said. “The art of Origami has inspired us to do things that don’t even look like Origami, yet it is the core of much of this new engineering.”
The new line of research is sponsored by the National Science Foundation and includes researchers at BYU, the University of Southern Indiana and Lang Origami.
“It’s pretty cool to accomplish things that have merely been science fiction in the past,” Howell said. “These are discoveries that will enable us to do things that no one has ever been able to do before. And we hope that other engineers, as they build on these discoveries, will apply them in ways that will help make the world a better place.

That's kinda the main point to the benefits of their designs, no hinges or ball bearings means less moving parts, making it stronger and more durable. The origami stuff just packs small and saves space and weight.
Have seen a bunch of stuff from these guys- this video seems to represent the folding / origami style for visual demonstration purposes as most people have seen a pop up book or origami in the past. I believe they intend to use the folding method for nano construction of electronic components. (perhaps too advanced for the intended audience?) I believe - with 3D printing technology , folks will begin to think differently about how to manufacture and examples like this will begin to overtake traditional forms of engineering. For myself - that hardest thing to overcome when designing for 3D printing is resource management. for instance: do you want to spend 10 hours designing a part that is optimized for printing time, material usage and overall integrity. - that triangle of 'Good' - 'fast' - 'cheep'

It would most likely be a revolution/renaissance through the Mind,body, Spirit. We wouldn’t necessarily depend as consumers but creative consumers.. if everyone just printed their own things. In a way probably causing us to care more about resources and not be such gluttons about them maybe
Man, they look mesmerizing to look at. I want one of these.
This is the kind of “discovery” that will inevitably lead into the long time development technology SOLELY for getting rid of the squeak and strengthening of the folding mechanisms rather than the whole functionality. And from where we are standing, we are still there.
Dunno what the hype is... some resemble technology found in pop up books... "Oh we figured out how to use hinges and folding"

I think the video was focusing on more rounded shapes and more complicated/yet practical applications. I before I've only seen basic square "orgami" like machines, which is good for some applications, but this new design on the old process opened up a whole new world of applications because now we can fold in different, more compact mechanisms. BTW I'm just basing this whole thing off my prior knowledge of this type of science, I'm by no means an expert, just interested

There's always the time where they industrialise and put out ideas that fit in our daily lives. So for now as they are still developing and trying out new things, this is somewhat appropriate as a insightful glance into the future prospects. If done well, the next advertisements should be for their more commonly used products in daily lives. ( Do correct me if I interpreted you wrongly )

Yeah, true statement, but this is a student recruiting video aimed at highschool engineering hopefuls. They hear 'Ironman' and 'revolutionary' and when the student sees a mechanism similar to something they have thought of or made or whatever, they think they will be a great fit there in their School of Engineering. BYU is an interesting and very unique college for several reasons and some of their programs are incredibly forward thinking, but this is really nothing more than a recruiting video trying to get young highschoolers interested in going to BYU. They aren't doing anything really forward thinking or groundbreaking with anything they have shown.
If I'm being brutally honest, I'm not all that impressed. If you can motorize it and make a practical version of something, then it's a different story. But so far, it's been done before, albeit a different design, but nonetheless. In its current form, this doesn't seem all that revolutionary. But that's not to say it couldn't be.

I'm no expert but... when iron man's suit does the "cool thing" as the guy said, I believe it's cooling the suit down. my reasoning for that is because of the steam coming off of it and the fact that when a bullet hits bulletproof metal the energy has to go somewhere so it is turned into heat. but heyyy that's just a theory. *a film theory*
