A reproduction of the dragon made with a rapid prototyping machine
The Stanford dragon is a computer graphics 3D test model created with a Cyberware 3030 Model Shop (MS) Color 3D Scanner at Stanford University.
The dragon consists of data describing 871,414 triangles[note 1][1] determined by 3D scanning a real figurine. The data set is often used to test various graphics algorithms, including polygonal simplification, compression, and surface smoothing.[2] It first appeared in 1996.
The model is available in different file formats (.ply, vrml, vl, ...) on the web for free.

Notes
- ↑ Although the Stanford web page says that it has 1,132,830 triangles, the actual face count is 871,414 in the .ply file.
