A VRML Mobius Strip
by
Anu Garg
What is a Mobius Strip?
The Mobius Strip gets its name from a German mathematician, August Ferdinand
Mobius (1790-1860). The interesting thing behind Mobius Strip is that unlike
most other two dimension surfaces (such as a page of a book) it has
only one side.
Implementation notes
This VRML world uses extrusion to create the Mobius Strip. The cross section
of the extrusion is rectangular, and the spine is a circle. The one sided
surface, the important feature of the Mobius Strip is effected by
turning the spine 180 degrees (using orientation field).
