Visual Polyhedra


These pages present interactive graphical polyhedra organized in several categories. Each polyhedron's page contains a 3-dimensional virtual model of the polyhedron, followed by a summary of the polyhedron's vital statistics. The model provides an opaque visual mode, a translucent visual mode, and a metrics mode. In the visual modes, the polyhedron can be rotated and scaled, the perspective can be changed, and individual faces can be examined in isolation. The metrics mode computes the polyhedron's vital statistics empirically.

The virtual model on each polyhedron's page requires a browser that supports the HTML5 Canvas element. For older browsers, try using the Java applet version of these pages.
