EmbroForm: Digital Fabrication of Soft Freeform Objects with Machine Embroidered Pull-up Strings

Pull-up objects form 3D shapes by pulling a string routed through a 2D material, offering low-cost 2D fabrication and reversible transformation. However, existing approaches rely on origamic folding, which creates faceted, oftentimes rigid surfaces and requires manual pull-up string routing. We introduce EmbroForm, a…
