Import a 3D model of a spoon into Unity and you’ll be able to see the mesh in full 3D but it won’t do much else. All this and we’d still have a rather clunky spoon, capable of crudely pushing around other rigid objects within the physics simulation. It’s possible using only physics simulations, but this is ridiculously inefficient.
