COMMENTS
Folding numbers: Numbers with an even number of bits in their binary expansion such that the XOR of the left half and the reverse of the right half is the all-1's string. Numbers with an odd number of bits in their binary expansion such that the central bit is 1, and the XOR of the left (n-1)/2 bits and the reverse of the right (n-1)/2 bits is the all-1's string.
Folding numbers with an even (resp. odd) number of bits form A035928 (resp. A276795). - N. J. A. Sloane, Nov 03 2016

EXAMPLE
178 in base 2 is 10110010. Taking the XOR of 1011 and 0100 (which is 0010 reversed) gives the result 1111, so 178 is in the sequence.
MAPLE
N:= 16: # to get all terms < 2^N
M[1]:= [[1]]: M[2]:= [[1, 0]]:
for d from 3 to N by 2 do

if d < N then
M[d+1]:= map(L -> ([op(L[1..(d-1)/2]), 0, 1, op(L[(d+1)/2..-1])], [op(L[1..(d-1)/2]), 1, 0, op(L[(d+1)/2..-1])]), M[d-1])
