NOTE: This thing is very old and is now obsolete. Here's a modern version that is essentially perfect: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5173406
My best attempt at reverse-engineering the Gömböc:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6mb%C3%B6c
The process began by using AutoDesk Photo Scene Editor on a series of 360-degree images of the original Gömböc published on the Gömböc website. This software lets you define common reference points on an object between images taken from different angles, and extrapolates the shape of the object using the resulting vector field. It yielded a crude Gömböc model which I then used as the basis for an eyeballed CSG model.
It isn't perfect, and it probably won't actually work as a Gömböc either, because the shape is reported to be very sensitive to dimensional tolerances. But I spent quite a bit of time and energy on this and thought somebody might use it as a starting point for improvements. Or better yet, that it would persuade the G
