LiveGraphics3D Example:
Morphing Polyhedra



Duals: (Tetrahedron) (Cube and Octahedron) (Dodecahedron and Icosahedron)
Non-Collapsing: (Tetrahedron and Octahedron) (Tetrahedron and Cube) (Tetrahedron and Dodecahedron) (Octahedron and Dodecahedron) (Cube and Dodecahedron)
Collapsing: Icosahedron and Tetrahedron (Dodecahedron and Tetrahedron)

This example shows a transformation of an icosahedron into a tetrahedron preserving the discrete rotational symmetries of the tetrahedron. (Well, at least as far a I understood it.) A similar transformation is possible between dodecahedron and tetrahedron. (In order to start the animation move the mouse into the picture.)
