Bridge-test calibration cube

sha256:fea11bc0d2ef0b01

§1Prompt verbatim

Calibration test piece for a 0.4 mm nozzle FDM printer: 40 × 40 × 30 mm with four horizontal bridges of length 5/10/15/20 mm at z=22 mm, each bridge cross-section 4 × 2 mm. Bridges must be unsupported but printable.

§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.
