## What it is
A repository collecting common 3D test models (e.g., Armadillo, Stanford Bunny, Happy Buddha) in their original formats alongside ~10MB OBJ meshes, with provenance and first-known-publication sources. It serves as reference data for graphics and geometry-processing research and testing.

## Use cases
- download standard 3D test meshes like the Stanford bunny or armadillo
- find original sources and citations for classic graphics models
- get OBJ files for testing mesh processing algorithms
- benchmark geometry libraries on well-known meshes
- compare results of mesh simplification or remeshing on standard models
- collect test data for 3D scanning and reconstruction research

## When to choose
- you need well-known reference meshes for graphics or geometry-processing experiments
- you want provenance and citations for classic 3D test models
- you need consistent OBJ files for unit tests or benchmarks

## When to avoid
- you need production-ready 3D assets for a game or app
- you require a license for redistribution, since the repo has no license
- you need textured or animated models rather than static meshes

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: graphics, simulation, data-generation
- domain: graphics, computer-vision, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: 3d-meshes, test-models, obj-files, geometry-processing, benchmark-data, algorithms
