Examples

  • Cuboids can be put together to make larger displays, with the largest thus far consisting of 6 cuboids and a corresponding 144,000 voxels.

  • Each cuboid has a volume of three cubic meters and contains 24,000 voxels.

  • In the tarsus the cuboid articulates with both the calcaneum and the astragalus, which is remarkably flat.

  • Two sesamoid bones are usually developed below each metatarso-phalangeal joint, and one below the cuboid.

  • In all mammals the tibiale and intermedium fuse to form the astragalus, and the fourth and fifth tarsalia to form the cuboid.

  • The cuboid always articulates with the astragalus, and the tarsal bones strongly interlock.

  • The tarsal bones have the regular Subungulate arrangement, the cuboid not articulating with the astragalus.
