3DViewer Alternatives

3DViewer

Outstanding features of 3DViewer are its high-speed visualization, its versatile 3D data display capabilities and its DCOM interface, which allows users access to 3DViewer from other programs. Data Exchange:
- Import and export of range images from structured point clouds using
data formats of extern 3D sensor manufacturers
- Import and export of range images from unstructured point clouds by
reconstruction of the sampling matrix
- Import and export of triangle meshes using common mesh formats like
3DS, OBJ, STL, PLY, VRML, etc.

3D Display
- Optionally display hidden lines
- Optional thinning for faster display
- Optionally display vertex or triangle indices or vertex normals
- Automatic display rotation for demonstration purposes
- Define material properties such as color, specular and diffuse reflection,
shininess etc.
- Display modes: points, horizontal lines, vertical lines, crossed lines,
flat shading, smooth (Gouraud) shading
- Place light sources

Data Analysis
- Set cutting planes for cross-section profiles
- Height-coded false color display (rainbow)
- Optional mesh coloring with colored vertices, texture bitmaps or
curvature-coded colors
- Calculate data point distances

Mesh Editing
- Insert/delete triangles or vertices (data points)
- Scale, translate and rotate individual objects
