Parameterization

This immersion of the Klein bottle into R3 is given by the following parameterization. Here the parameters u and v run from 0 to 2π and r is some fixed positive constant.

x = \left(r + \cos\frac{u}{2}\sin v - \sin\frac{u}{2}\sin 2v\right) \cos u
y = \left(r + \cos\frac{u}{2}\sin v - \sin\frac{u}{2}\sin 2v\right) \sin u
z = \sin\frac{u}{2}\sin v + \cos\frac{u}{2}\sin 2v

Mathematica source

Klein8[r_:2] =
 Function[{u, v},
   {
       (r + Cos[u/2]Sin[v] - Sin[u/2]Sin[2v]) Cos[u],
       (r + Cos[u/2]Sin[v] - Sin[u/2]Sin[2v]) Sin[u],
       Sin[u/2]Sin[v] + Cos[u/2]Sin[2v]
   }
 ]

 ParametricPlot3D[Evaluate[Klein8[][u, v]], {u, 0, 2Pi}, {v, 0, 2Pi},
   PlotPoints -> 60, Boxed -> False, Axes -> False, ImageSize -> 800]

This image was then antialised with Chris Hill's code, made transparent around the surface and had stray pixels removed in an image editor.
