Abstract
A description of crystal lattices in terms of automata is presented. The words of a language represented by an automata are mapped to points in R 2 and R 3 defining lattice points and their connections. These automata descriptions of crystal lattices reveal subtle properties that are difficult to see in other descriptions. A few applications of these automata are discussed.
