This code sets up a dark-red background board and constructs a regular pentagon and a triangle whose vertices are hidden in the same background color. From them, two Reuleaux polygons are generated. A thick red line is drawn at $y=-2$, along which the Reuleaux pentagon rolls, while the Reuleaux triangle rolls inside the pentagon, producing two simultaneous roulette motions. **AI generated desctiption**
