Abstract

AbstractNinety‐degree pop‐ups are a type of papercraft on which a three‐dimensional (3D) structure pops up when the angle of the base fold is 90°. They are fabricated by cutting and creasing a single sheet of paper. Traditional 90° pop‐ups are limited to 3D shapes only comprising planar shapes because they are made of paper. In this paper, we present novel pop‐ups, fabricatable 90° pop‐ups that employ the 90° pop‐up mechanism, consist of components with curved shapes, and can be fabricatable using a 3D printer. We propose a method for converting a 3D model into a fabricatable 90° pop‐up. The user first interactively designs a layout of pop‐up components, and the system automatically deforms the components using the 3D model. Because the generated pop‐ups contain necessary cuts and folds, no additional assembly process is required. To demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method, we designed and fabricated various 90° pop‐ups using a 3D printer.
