Abstract
Curved origami-based meta-material, manufacturing method of the same, curved origami-based haptic module and a method for producing active mechanical haptics. The curved origami-based metamaterial includes a panel having a single curved crease extending in its longitudinal direction, which divides the panel into two facets at its two opposite sides. The panel is configured to be folded along the single curved crease to form a folding angle between the two facets. The folding angle is configured to be adjustable to achieve a variable stiffness when loaded in a vertical direction of the folded panel, covering positive stiffness to negative stiffness.
