Every floor, wall and fabric on Earth hides one of 17 mathematical symmetry groups. Your camera can catch them. Mathematicians proved that every repeating flat pattern belongs to exactly one of 17 symmetry groups. Symmetry Hunter turns your camera into the instrument that identifies them — and the world into the game board. POINT. Photograph a tiled floor, a brick wall, a quilt, a fence. Shot at an angle? Tap four corners of one tile, or let Auto straighten it for you. READ. The app draws the hidden structure on your photo: rotation centers as dots, mirror lines solid, glide reflections dashed. The annotated photo is your trophy. COLLECT. Fill all 17 wallpaper-group slots. Rarity is real, not designed: p4m is every checkered floor, but pg — glide reflections and nothing else — is a genuine field find. Strips (friezes) and medallions (rosettes) have their own shelves. LEARN. Flip any find between “colors” and “structure” view and watch the group change — a checkerboard is one group if you count the colors and another if you don’t. Honest by design: if a pattern isn’t truly periodic — a patchwork, a randomized design, even a Penrose tiling — Symmetry Hunter says so, and tells you why. (A Penrose tiling will, however, proudly report its five-fold rosette.) All analysis runs on your device. No account, no ads, no tracking.
