What kinds of scientists and designers use Zome?
Because Zome replicates so many natural structures and can build so many different geometric designs, it is of great value for many professionals. Mathematicians use Zome to model everything from networks in discrete mathematics, to group theory, and projection models (shadows) of theoretical 4-dimensional objects. Crystallographers, chemists and material scientists build lattices of natural crystals and quasi-crystalline materials, Buckyballs and other Fullerenes, and models of chromosome bonds and protein molecules. Engineers and computer scientists design space frames, make visual models of data bases, and numerous other uses. Zome is also used in corporate team building workshops by corporations such as Kimberly-Clark and Merrill Lynch.
