How can I use a dice symbol inside a math equation?

Question

I would like to use a dice symbol such as those defined in Andrew Swann's answer, given to Dice symbols for digits up to 9, inside a math equation.

For instance, to model the set of results after a throw, I would like to write :

$$ \Omega = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\} $$

Where each number is replaced by the corresponding dice symbol.

Answer 1

The epsdice, hhcount, and stix packages all contain macros for drawing dice. For instance, here's an example that loads and makes use of the epsdice package.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{epsdice}
\begin{document}
\[
\Omega=\{ \epsdice{1}, \epsdice{2}, \epsdice{3}, \epsdice{4}, \epsdice{5}, \epsdice{6} \}
\]
\end{document}

Addendum to address the OP's follow-up query: To \center the die symbols vertically, i.e, to align them on the math axis, you could encase them in \vcenter{\hbox{...}} "wrappers".

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{epsdice}
\newcommand\vcdice[1]{\vcenter{\hbox{\epsdice{#1}}}}
\begin{document}
\[
\Omega=\{ \vcdice{1}, \vcdice{2}, \vcdice{3}, \vcdice{4}, \vcdice{5}, \vcdice{6} \}
\]
\end{document}

2nd addendum: If you're free to use LuaLaTeX, you could use a Lua for loop to generate most of the die symbols. This may not seem like a big deal if just five symbols are generated; however, it becomes a lot more interesting for use cases that involve more than a dozen or so calls to the same macro.

% !TEX program = lualatex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{epsdice}
\newcommand\vcdice[1]{\vcenter{\hbox{\epsdice{#1}}}}
\begin{document}
\[
  \Omega = \{ 
  \directlua{ for i=1,5 do tex.sprint ( "\\vcdice{" .. i .. "}," ) end }
  \vcdice{6} \}
\]
\end{document}
