picky about notations," he explained. "We let them define whatever notation they want, so they can express themselves naturally." The researchers will present Penrose at the SIGGRAPH 2020 Conference on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques, which will be held this July. "Our vision is to be able to dust off an old math textbook from the library, drop it into the computer and get a beautifully illustrated book - that way more people understand," Crane said, noting that Penrose is a first step toward this goal.
