Two interpenetrating spheres (lens intersection)

sha256:31ab02fd9c41ee20

§1Prompt verbatim

Intersect two Ø 40 mm spheres whose centres are 25 mm apart along X. Output the lens-shaped intersection as a single watertight solid.

§3Reference render

canonical reference · drag to orbit, scroll to zoom

Visualisation is rebuilt in-browser from the canonical parametric description. Scoring is performed against the held-out reference STEP file (sha-256 fingerprint above).

Each tile is rebuilt from the canonical parametric description and degraded to match the agent's scored profile (tessellation, non-manifold face removal, dimension scale jitter, missing features). Image-only diffusion models render visually plausible meshes but score in the single digits on BREP fidelity — the geometry is not a manifold solid even when the render reads clean.
