Reference

Miura-ori: Rigid-foldable origami pattern invented by Koryo Miura
NASA Use: James Webb Space Telescope sunshield, solar arrays
Physics: btHingeConstraint with limited rotation (0-180°)
Power Calc: P = A × η × I × cos(θ), where θ = angle to sun
Deployment: Single degree of freedom — all hinges synchronized

Ready. Configure array and click Rebuild.
