Kaleidocycle is a combination of beautiful (kalos) + shape (eid0s) + kyklos, meaning beautifully shaped rings. It is a three-dimensional figure with multiple tetrahedrons connected and rotatable around the center, which can be rotated continuously inside or outside, and can see different sides of each tetrahedron during rotation, so it is also called a transformed three-dimensional figure.

Previous Image Next ImageThe kaleid cycle varies in shape depending on the number of tetrahedrons, but the kaleid cycle consisting of six tetrahedrons is mainly used. However, odd tetrahedrons cannot create a kaleid cycle, and when eight or more tetrahedrons meet, the shape is not fixed and moves on its own.CALEID CYCLE DEVELOPMENT DRAWING WITH HalloweenThe following site details the mathematical content of the kaleid cycle, so if you are interested, please visit the following site.What is a kaleidoscope?……K1 The simplest kaleidoscope is an even tetrahedron ring.(A tetrahedron is a pyramid with equal ends, and its sides are equilateral triangles.) The tetrahedrons are connected by vertical edges. What’s special about this is that you can constantly twist it in.www.mathematische-basteleien.deWhat is a kaleidoscope?……K1 The simplest kaleidoscope is an even tetrahedron ring.(A tetrahedron is a pyramid with equal ends, and its sides are equilateral triangles.)
