Atlas Mechanica: an atlas for how machines move
An open, interactive reference for exploring mechanical mechanisms through models, mathematics, history, applications, and connected ideas.
Field notes
The homepage divides the project into four ways of approaching the subject: individual mechanisms, curated learning paths, historical collections, and eventual searches by function. It explicitly uses Brown's 507 as source context while declining to make that numbering the atlas's taxonomy. The stated material spans live models, mathematical explanation, applications, and links between mechanisms, while the supplied extract does not show a particular model in operation.
