| Description: |
This is a free JAVA applet that helps users to study spatial geometry in a dynamic and interactive way. Using it, the user can rotate, zoom out, zoom in and translate a plethora of polyhedra. Moreover, the program is able to compute topological and geometrical duals of each polyhedron. Geometrical operations include unfolding, plane sections, truncation and stellation. |
