Variable car wheel that changes height like origami

It developed a high-load capacity origami transformable wheel, inspired by origami, jointly developed by Seoul National University, Harvard University of Technology, and Hankook Tire. Research has been conducted since 2013, followed by palm-sized wireless control, and in 2021, it has evolved to the size of a full vehicle, such as being installed on a Jeep.

The vehicle body shrinks or the garage rises, and the height is lowered, as if it protrudes outward, so it is possible to easily drive on flat lands such as uneven rough roads and sand with variable wheels. Even if there is no shock absorption, the bending of faces and face joints located everywhere absorbs the impact. Related information can be found here.
