Tetrahedron Physics is an interactive 3D physics simulation that showcases a wireframe tetrahedron filled with multiple bouncing balls. The application serves as a demonstration of fundamental physics concepts such as collision detection, gravity, and momentum, all presented in a minimalist visual style. To use the app, simply load it in a web browser, and the simulation will start automatically. Users can observe the balls as they bounce and collide within the rotating tetrahedron, with the wireframe rendering allowing for a clear view of all interactions. The simulation provides an engaging way to visualize how the balls interact with each other and the tetrahedron's faces. The app is built using several modern web technologies, including React and Next.js for the application framework, Three.js for 3D rendering, and React Three Fiber for integrating Three.js with React. Physics simulation is handled by React Three Rapier, while post-processing effects enhance the visual experience with wireframe rendering. Tailwind CSS is utilized for styling the application. Key features of Tetrahedron Physics include wireframe rendering of 3D objects, real-time physics simulation, multiple colored balls with collision detection, a rotating tetrahedron container, post-processing outline effects, and a responsive design that adapts to different screen sizes. This combination of features makes the app not only visually appealing but also educational, providing insights into basic physics principles.
