arXiv:2605.30794v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated significant achievements in general visual question answering (VQA) tasks. However, they remain brittle on mechanical engineering drawings, where high annotation density and weak domain knowledge, compounded by unreliable spatial relation reasoning under strict projection rules and geometric constraints, make decisive cues easy to miss and frequently lead to wrong answers. To bridge this gap, we introduce the first comprehensive mechanical drawing understanding dataset, MechVQA, created through a semi-automated construction and quality-control pipeline. MechVQA contains 3.3k high-density pictures with 21K question-answer pairs, spanning 10 different fine-grained tasks across three capability levels: Recognition, Reasoning, and Judging, providing a testbed to evaluate and improve MLLM understanding on real-world mechanical drawings.
