CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Aimed at math students just beginning to analyze three-dimensional objects, this program creates simple, interactive 3D models of geometrical forms. Users can choose the number of sides, adjust the height and length of sides, or otherwise tweak an object's parameters, and instantly see how it affects the shape. Models can be rotated in space, zoomed in or out, and viewed as a solid object or transparent net. However, the program offers little in the way of bells or whistles. The interface feels a bit outdated, and the ability to modify the colors of the background and objects is limited. The software periodically displays a registration reminder, which forces users to restart in order to continue. The trial version will function for only 30 days. However, for students struggling to visualize what are otherwise geometrical abstractions, this software could provide considerable help.Publisher's description
From EduIQ :This software is designed as a simple accessory for math teaching. The program can represent the following objects in 3D space: regular prism (three to ten sides), general three-sided prism, special four-sided prism (adjustable inclination of sides), and regular pyramid (three to ten sides). Each geometrical object's parameters can be adjusted, including height and length of sides, inclination of sides, number of sides, and so on. Each object can be gradually opened or closed from its basic net to geometrical object. Each adjustment of a parameter is interactive and seen immediately. Each object can be freely rotated in 3D space at all times of the process. Each object can be zoomed in or out at any scale. The 3D animations execute at high speed in real time even on slower machines.
