The shape of these puzzle tiles was discovered and published by David Smith, Joseph Samuel Myers, Craig S. Kaplan, and Chaim Goodman-Strauss in “An aperiodic monotile” (March 2023, available at https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2303.10798 . The authors refer to this shape as an “einstein” - “a shape that admits tilings of the plane, but never periodic tilings".
The models feature a central groove to insert the provided hexagonal rings into, which holds the pieces together and stops them from sliding apart.
A mirrored tile version is also provided, but fewer pieces of those are needed.
