Reference

4D Printing: 3D printed objects that transform over time
Shape Memory: Materials that "remember" programmed shapes
Trigger: Heat, water, light, or time activates transformation
Cross Pattern: Unfolds into cube via hinged faces
Physics: btHingeConstraint with motor target angles
Water Effect: Buoyancy and fluid resistance slow assembly
Applications: Medical devices, deployable structures, robotics

Ready. Start assembly to fold into cube.
