This animation shows LHC detector architecture
Animation has been generated from 3D image saved as .nb file
From 3D image d
we can retrieve data about every element position in space, for example
d[[1, 1]]
Out[]= {RGBColor[7/(3 Sqrt[6]), Sqrt[2/3]/3, 1/(3 Sqrt[6])],
Opacity[0.15],
GeometricTransformation[
Cuboid[{-8.4, -36, -0.15}, {8.4, 36,
0.15}], {{{0.0784591, -0.996917, 0}, {-0.996917, -0.0784591,
0}, {0, 0, -1}}, {-65.7965, -5.1783, -1502.5}}]}
d[[1, 2]]
Out[]= {RGBColor[7/Sqrt[57], 2/Sqrt[57], 2/Sqrt[57]], Opacity[0.15],
GeometricTransformation[
Cuboid[{-8.4, -36, -0.15}, {8.4, 36,
0.15}], {{{0.0461835, -0.998933, 0}, {-0.998933, -0.0461835,
0}, {0, 0, -1}}, {-139.851, -6.46568, -1502}}]}
Totally we have
Length[d[[1, All]]]
Out[]= 18728
module described as cuboids with different size, position and orientation.
The question is how we can save 3D image d
with data using other format?
Minimal working example.

Visualization
Graphics3D[data, Boxed -> False]
Now we can save 3D image shown above as .nb file, and then we can retrieve data
from this image as data=image[[1,All]]
. The question is about other available format to save image with data in it.
data
and save 3D image as .nb file. Then call it and rename 3D image asimage=...
same asd
shown above. .nb is nice format for Mathematica users only. $\endgroup$
