Meshes and interactive diagrams serve different tasks
The ballista, catapult, trebuchet, ram and siege tower are real GLB scene assets. Anatomy figures are standalone HTML/SVG with interactive motion, sometimes using WebGL or its projection engine. Their displayed format tells you what you can inspect or download.
Follow the mechanism and its readout
The engine figure separates eleven assemblies. The robot hand turns with its dial. The new 42-component comparator moves four blocks under a probe; its pointer and metric readout share one illustrative model. These are visual explainers rather than calibrated instruments or manufacturing CAD.
Questions, answered.
Can Anatomy diagrams be downloaded as GLB?
The integrated Anatomy figures are HTML/SVG mechanisms. They do not provide GLB or CAD export. The five siege-machine references separately provide GLB downloads.
Does the comparator show real measurement results?
Its four blocks represent 0.6, 1.2, 1.8 and 2.4 mm on an illustrative scale, with 2 mm per needle turn. The readout explains a mechanism; it is not a calibrated measurement.
