A simplified version of the Wave Function Collapse algorithm - victorqribeiro/simpleWFC

Simple Wave Function Collapse launched on May 15, 2022 with 43 votes, #811 of 2,942 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 4 years on.

In plain words

Simple Wave Function Collapse is a simulator based on quantum mechanics principles, launched in 2022. It models wave function collapse—the phenomenon where a quantum system settles into a definite state upon observation. The tool is designed for anyone interested in exploring quantum physics concepts interactively. It offers a straightforward implementation of this complex principle, making quantum mechanics more accessible and observable through simulation rather than abstract theory alone.

    Features include: - Several preset periodic orbits: the classic Figure-8, plus newly discovered 3D solutions from Li and Liao's recent database of 10,000+ orbits (https://arxiv.org/html/2508.08568v1) - Full 3D camera controls (rotate/pan/zoom) with body-following mode - Force and velocity vector visualization - Timeline scrubbing to explore the full orbital period The 3D presets are particularly interesting. Try "O₂(1.2)" or "Piano O₆(0.6)" from the Load Presets menu to see configurations where bodies weave in and out of the orbital plane. Most browser…
