The 16-6 gyrochoron, also known as funky 16, is a convex isochoric polychoron and member of the gyrochoron family with 16 edge-laterostellated hexagonal prisms as cells. It is also the hexagonal funk prism.
Each cell of this polychoron has bilateral symmetry, with 2 mirror-symmetric hexagons, 2 mirror-symmetric pentagons, 1 rhombus, and 4 kites for faces.
