Origami Sound Baffle

Arduino controlled sound baffle responds to ambient noise levels, unfolding as the volume rises, and closing when it quiets down.  Unfolding provides more baffling surface area, allowing the device to address noise in specific locations.   The baffle was designed for open office floorplans, or restaurants, which have unpredictable gatherings.   Thus an array of these would help control background noise only where needed, organically blossoming open and close, reflecting the activities below.
