The chamfered tesseract, also known as the octatruncated icositetrachoron, is a convex polychoron. It has 8 cubes and 24 square bifrusta as cells. It can be obtained as the convex core of a tesseract with hyperplanes passing under each square face. It can also be made by truncating an icositetrachoron at 8 vertices of an inscribed hexadecachoron.
