While the overall project is the sorting of cargos on origami, we expected verification of all of the mechanisms would take longer than one summer. Therefore, this summer was spent verifying two aspects of the project:

  1. Verifying that the proposed mechanisms work when the strands are free-floating in solution (i.e. not bound to origami).
  2. Verifying that the random walking mechanism works as intended on origami.
