Conway's right triangle splits into five smaller copies over and over, and because each turn is an irrational angle no two levels ever line up again.

Low Poly Mesh Background – Live Delaunay Triangulation Loop
About Delaunay Mesh
Points drift on slow orbits and the frame retriangulates around them every frame, so the whole low-poly mesh keeps rebuilding itself.

Frequently asked
What is the Delaunay Mesh animation?
Points drift on slow orbits and the frame retriangulates around them every frame, so the whole low-poly mesh keeps rebuilding itself. It belongs to the Tessellation Backgrounds category on velements, where you edit it in the browser and download it as a finished video file.
What can you customize in Delaunay Mesh?
Every control in the editor, grouped the same way there. Style: background, primary, secondary, accent and thickness. Layout: aspect ratio and count. Motion: duration, density, variation and speed. Each change appears in the live preview straight away, and editing is free.
How long is Delaunay Mesh?
Delaunay Mesh runs 10 seconds by default, and you can set any length up to 60 seconds before you export. It loops seamlessly, so you can repeat it on your timeline for as long as the shot needs.
Can you download Delaunay Mesh with a transparent background?
Yes. Set the background to Transparent, then export a PNG sequence for Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or Figma: import the first frame as an image sequence and it drops onto a track above your footage with a straight alpha channel. Export WebM with a VP9 alpha channel for the web and for CapCut. MP4 has no alpha channel, so it keeps a solid color or image behind the animation.
Can you use Delaunay Mesh in commercial projects?
Yes. Each download comes with a perpetual commercial license in your name for client work, ads and products, and you may sell the edited clip on stock footage sites. Reselling the preset itself as an editable template is not allowed.
