Abstract
A die having three sides in the form of a cube wherein the cube is altered to portray only three face values that appear to a user.
Claims
1. A device comprising a die: said die having three sides; each side of said die to have a number on it; said die being in form of a cube; said die portraying only three number values that can appear on top of said die.
2. The device of claim 1 wherein said die rolls and bounces as a conventional 6-faced die does.
3. The device of claim 1 wherein said die presents a number unambiguously with precisely a chance of occurrence.
4. The device of claim 1 wherein said die has a unique angled surface facing up regardless of type of surface where said die is rolled.
5. The device of claim 1 wherein said die produces unique statistical results.
6. The device of claim 1 wherein said die rolls as a normal six-sided die rolls in a random manner, without landing on an unnumbered side.
7. The device of claim 1 wherein said die invariably displays a unique number randomly face up.
8. The device of claim 1 wherein said die is balanced equally on all sides.
9. The device of claim 1 wherein said die has uniform density throughout.
10. The device of claim 1 wherein said die is formed of a single material.
11. The device of claim 1 wherein said die has numbers 1, 2, and 3 on each side of said die.
12. The device of claim 1 wherein said die comprises a cube with three faces diagonally placed joining two sides, each of said faces leaving two protruding corners.
13. The device of claim 1 wherein said die comprises a wire face cube having three faces diagonally placed joining two diametrically opposite corners.
14. The device of claim 13 wherein surfaces of said die present numbers that connect diametrically opposite corners in void left inside said wire-frame.
