Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

I am trying to create a digital representation of a real origami simulation, which will be controlled with Arduino/Firefly and have been having difficulty working out the bending/folding of the surface.

I am trying to create a slightly more generalized folding system so that I can easily change the patterning and have it be properly manipulated.  This however may not be entirely plausible, at least with my skills, but I am hoping that I don't have to rewrite a definition every time since I hope to have many different surface iterations.

I am fairly new to Kangaroo, and only recently thrown myself full force into Grasshopper as a whole, in order to finish my thesis project.  I have looked at numerous example files, and in my definition part half is based on another definition similar to mine, but I also have another that I tried to create on my own at the top.

I am trying to have an origami pattern fold from a flat surface into the prescribed form based on the folding directions.  I have attached images of my current form I would like the folded surface to take on.

Additionally, I have been having issues with the Kangaroo Force Objects input not accepting more than on input.  I know to flatten, but even when flattened it does not accept more than one.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
