Whenever you roll a dice at casino wondering whether your chances of winning are not affected by an imprecise dice then you are absolutely right. The average dice used in games is not that accurate and in a way affects your probability of winning and that is why a project is up on Kickstarter for creating a precision dice that accounts for all the weight and mass ratios to come up with a dice that is precise on all six faces like never before. The dice will be precision machined from solid piece of raw material and will be made offered in aluminum, stainless steel, brass, copper, tungsten and titanium. This dice is based on the principle of centroid which defines the geometric center of any object.
By calculating the moment of inertia and making structural modifications to reduce the differential between the centroid, center of mass and mass movement of inertia of a perfect cube it was possible to make a dice that is fair enough when rolled. The face features will be drilled in such a way that it compensates the mass of material removed from opposite face, so for example the side opposite to 3 is 4 and the holes drilled on the 3 face will be deeper than that on the 4 face.
The Precision Machined Dice has already achieved more than 15 times the funding goal amount and we can expect to see it hit the production lines. So I would advise you to pledge certain amount for the project and get special offers that would be redundant once the product is out in the market for retail purchase.
