Look at the action.
Understand the reference.
Design views of Hyperbolic Slot Straight Rod Exhibit. These still images show the reference layout; they do not record the activity in operation.
Plan the comparison
Rotate the rod slowly and follow the different points where it crosses the slotted plane.
Question to explore
Why does a straight rod fit a curved clearance slot as it turns? Distinguish the straight rod from the surface swept by its motion.
This film sequences existing reference images. It is not continuous operating footage or a moving 3D simulation; final function and configuration follow the agreed project.
