Signal An AI turned one photo of an espresso machine into an articulated CAD model

Summary

An AI model generated a fully articulated, editable CAD model from a single photograph of an espresso machine. Rather than a surface 3D mesh it wrote CadQuery code with defined parameters, individual components and functional joints. The process included a physics simulation loop checking for physical interference and collision through the range of joint movement.
