I am trying to create a lenticular pattern like the one in the picture.
I believe the repeated shape can be drawn using a for loop in tikz, but I wasn't able to get it done properly.
Appreciate any help on looping.
Edit: This is a part of a bigger diagram and below is the code.

@Superuser27 An OP doesnt always need a perfect MWE to start with. But atleast some commitment or motivation should be there behind a question, instead of knowing the way how to proceed and not trying it. Everyone of us makes mistakes (I am also learning things that way). In this case OP knows what to do, and has the recipies to do. It's just a matter of trial-and-error to atleast begin something. If you see this: tex.stackexchange.com/questions/472117/… then OP already has some knowledge on where to start with:).
