DYNAMICAL BILLIARD OBSERVATORY
Dynamical Billiard Observatory
- Observe
- Change the boundary and follow a point through free flight and mirror-like collisions. Compare its path with the same collisions on a boundary map.
- First touch
- Change the table and launch direction, then follow reflections and the collision map.
- Worth watching
- Compare collision patterns for different boundaries. A finite return is not a proof of periodicity or global chaos.
