Polygon App

Polygon es una aplicación móvil interactiva que permite al usuario descubrir polígonos escondidos en museos o centros de ciencia, y usarlos para construir sólidos Platónicos y Arquimedianos.
Escanea polígonos con la cámara de tu teléfono, resuelve cuestiones matemáticas para obtener recompensas, y visualiza los poliedros terminados en Realidad Aumentada.

Geometry of Architecture

Through works by renowned architects such as Antoni Gaudí, Felix Candela and Oscar Niemeyer, this film intends to show the natural way in which the formulas, the geometry of forms and their concretization are intertwined.

The mathematics of tides

Most people know something about what causes tides: if asked, almost everyone will say tides are caused by the moon. But if one delves a little deeper, it is easy to find many questions which arise naturally and are not so easy to answer. This interactive application tries to give an intuitive approach to some of the mathematics underlying tides, which is not so obvious for non specialists.

Platonic Solids

The Platonic Solids are some of the most beautiful and symmetrical shapes in the mathematical world and as a result have fascinated mathematicians for thousands of years. This exhibit explains their mathematical deifnition and how they have been used throughout history to model everything in our universe, from the classical elements of Ancient Greece through to Kepler’s model of the solar system. It also explores their appearance in nature and how humans have made use of their mathematical properties to improve the design of man-made objects.
