In our mind’s eye, the universe seems to go on forever. But using geometry we can explore a variety of three-dimensional shapes that offer alternatives to “ordinary” infinite space. When you gaze out ...

Squares, triangles, circles - these geometric shapes appear everywhere in art and architecture going back all through human history. Geometric regularity seems to be something that the human brain ...

Crows, members of the corvid family, can recognize geometric shapes, as confirmed by a new study published in the latest issue of the scientific journal "Science Advances".It turns out these birds ...

Their full paper is available on the arXiv preprint server. When people tile their floors, they tend to use simple geometric shapes that lend themselves to repeating patterns, such as squares or ...

Mathematician Jordan Ellenberg answers the internet's burning questions about geometry. How are new shapes still being discovered? Where are we using Pythagorean theorem in real life? How many ...

Geometry is key The research study ... but it is also lighter and the auxetic liner can be customised to individual head shapes using 3D printing. That is beneficial for professional athletes ...

Crows are able to look at a handful of four-sided shapes and correctly distinguish those that exhibit geometric regularity from those that don't, according to a provocative new study. It's the ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have applied a visualization technique to depict the brain's activity related to visual perception as geometric patterns. They visualized different shapes as ...
