Pushing the limits of what OpenSCAD can do. Sharing this video as a curiosity. More information about this part can be found here: • Narrow 2WD Differentia...
In case you are wondering how this animation was created, here are some details. A top-level UNIX shell script computes time stamps and camera positions, and for each it calls OpenSCAD from the command-line, with instructions to save to disc a PNG image file. The PNG images are then stitched together into video using FFmpeg.
There are some intricate details esp. concerning the cutaway, because with OpenSCAD there are "color bleeding issues" when cutting at two objects of different color at the same plane. To solve this, the cutaway plane is budged very slightly for each object being cut away. This describes the process, but only in a very general terms.
