3D Model & Digital Twin
The Interactive 3D Model
Today, both Kronos machines live as an interactive 3D model you can open, rotate, and take apart — the working seed of the digital twin to come.
In brief
- A browser-based, component-by-component 3D model of both machines — breeder (Hyperion) and burner.
- Every component is clickable, with real dimensions and the design parameters behind it.
- Runs the actual physics in the browser — not a cartoon, a computable model.
- Open to everyone; Kronos team members sign in for full engineering detail.
The detail
The 3D model is where the design becomes tangible. Rather than a static render, it is an explorable model of both machines: open the spherical-tokamak breeder or the tandem-mirror burner, pull them apart layer by layer, click any component to see its dimensions and the design point behind it, and run the physics live. It is the public face of the design record — and, deliberately, the first version of a system that grows into a full predictive twin once the machines are built and instrumented.
