| What is Juno's Spinner |
|
Juno's spinner are polyhedra models I discovered that links and transforms. With a simple operation, it expands and shrinks. Juno's spinner (the usual model of that) consists of two elements. A rotational joint connects the end of each element, and the whole model transform together by a motion being transmitted through the joint. Rotational movement of an element changes the distance of each element. |

Dr. Hugo F. VERHEYEN did similar and comprehensive study about transformable polyhedra many years ago. We can see his great work at "AN ALTERNATIVE GENERATION AND TRANSFORMATION THEORY FOR UNIFORM POLYHEDRA (3d edition)" that had published in 1981.
