Cute idea. I would try and tie it in with professional printers (not everybody has a good printer that can print good colors on heavy paper)

Also, I was a bit disappointed. When clicking it, I hoped for some tool that creates an origami design from a 3D model :-)

same here. But I think it's not that easy to turn just any topology into a paper model (as you can see here: http://www.ufunk.net/en/techno/les-portraits-3d-realistes-en... )

That guy cheats by cutting the paper. That makes it too easy :-)

I was thinking of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_paper_folding. Examples and more math at http://static.usenix.org/event/usenix08/tech/slides/lang.pdf
