Kokichi Sugihara didn't reach quite the top this year with his "Facing-Right Illusion", but he has won multiple years with variations of this concept. Cool that it gets refined each year.
I have calculated some of the shapes myself and a few unique ones. They can be seen here: https://www.thingiverse.com/Matsemann/collections/matsemanns-ambiguous-cylinders https://www.thingiverse.com/Matsemann/collections/matsemanns...
- silvester23 7y agoI think it's pretty cool, but I'm sure what exactly the illusion is supposed to be? I mean, it's an actually symmetrical shape so after rotating 180° it seems rather obvious that we see the exact same thing as before, no?
- matsemann 7y agoOne would normally think that rotating it would create the same shape, but pointing the other way. My arrow here maybe makes it a bit more clear: https://github.com/Matsemann/impossible-objects https://github.com/Matsemann/impossible-objects
- silvester23 7y agoI actually much prefer your arrow to the example in the linked article! The lighting of the bird shows its somewhat weird shape very clearly and pretty much gives away the illusion, at least to me.
