Idea for a new placeable item

We have the Aurora souvenir, the luggage bag, the posters, the lab equipment and the coffee machine. This idea, however, is gonna be infinitely difficult to program. It's a penrose triangle.

In the real world, this would look different if you change your point of view.

What I'm asking for, if for it to constantly look impossible, whatever your point of view (I mean that you don't need to use forced perspective to make it look weird). I have zero knowledge in programming, but I know this will be a pain to program, and might even be impossible (at least it's only a small, minor and almost unimportant object). But a computer generated-world isn't the real physical world, so you never know.

What do you think? And also, a question to you programmers out there: do you think this is possible?

    Just have it sit on a little hover platform and always be facing you.

    I'm gonna ask the obivous question: Why do we need this of all things?

    We don't. It's just placeable items which you can use to decorate your base a bit.

    What's that? Yes, of course... No the humans don't know... I'm not sure they are ready yet... Fine, phase one can be set in motion...


    This is one of the most awesome ideas ever, Darwin, propose it and we shall have it sh▲pe the minds of many.

    I hate having to keep doing this. Kouji, keep your lips tighter from here on out.
