论文摘要
本文介绍了一个名为“ Knotportal”的软件，该软件是根据比尔·瑟斯顿（Bill Thurston）的想法可视化结的分支封面的，以将结视为其他宇宙的门户。我们的实现使用户可以使用带有房间跟踪的头部安装设备在屏幕上或虚拟现实中探索这些打结的门户。这不仅使用户能够看到这些胶粘不同的世界，而且可以通过能够浏览门户来体验它们。该软件可用于使学生能够了解结，粘合，（分支）封面，或者只是为了了解门户。
This article describes a software named "KnotPortal" for visualization of branched covers of knots based on an idea by Bill Thurston to view a knot as a portal to other universes. Our implementation allows users to explore these knotted portals either on a screen or in virtual reality using a head-mounted device with room-tracking. This allows users not only to see these glued different worlds, but experience them by being able to walk through the portals. This software can be used to enable students to learn about knots, gluing, (branched) covers, or just to have a fun look at portals.
