- The Hypnoloid is the opposite of a spinning top, contacting the surface with its entire surface area.
- The shape is called an oloid, discovered by German sculptor and mathematician Paul Schatz.
- Schatz describes the oloid as a figure formed when the distance between two disk centers equals the radius.
- The Hypnoloid is CNC-machined from aluminum and sold by Hypnotiq for $70.
