How To Scientifically Design A 2-Dimensional World? (II)

Published on May 9, 2022 by Hemanth

How To Scientifically Design A 2-Dimensional World? - an image featuring an illustration of a 2-dimensional door. The image on the left (titled '1') shows the door when it is closed, resting centrally. The image on the right (titled '2') shows the door when it is about to open. The door has two symmetrical levers on either side, a rotary hinge connected to the roof, and a wedge in the bottom at the center. When the lever is pushed from either side, the wedge rocks and the door swings open.
Previously, I covered the scientific principles behind a 2-dimensional world. This essay gives you a sneak-peek into the world of 2-dimensional tech design!
