Caligari TrueSpace Object File
A file format for storing 3D objects that was created by the Caligari Corporation. It is used by their software, TrueSpace, which is a 3D modeling and animation program. Here are some of the key features and benefits of COB:
- COB File Formats: There are two types of COB files:
- ASCII: COB files are human-readable and can be edited with just a text editor.
- Binary: COB files are machine-readable only but they are more compact and efficient.
- COB File Import: Autoconverter and Automesher Application can import COB files and convert them to other 3D formats, such as STEP, SAT, FBX, SKP, OBJ, and others. We use the open asset import library, which is a cross-platform library that supports many 3D file formats. By using this library, we can preserve the original features of the COB file, such as the materials, textures, UV coordinates, and other properties.
Portable Network Graphics Image
It's a type of raster image file format that uses lossless compression. This means that the image quality is preserved even when the file size is reduced. PNG files also support transparency, which allows images to have irregular shapes or backgrounds that blend with the web page. However, PNG files do not support animation, unlike GIF files. Here are some of the key features and benefits of PNG:
- Efficient Storage: PNG offers smaller file sizes compared to uncompressed formats like BMP, leading to faster website loading times.
- Lossless Compression: PNG files use a compression technique that preserves the image quality and details, even when the file size is reduced.
- Diverse Imagery: PNG files are ideal for images that have sharp edges and large solid colors, such as text, line art, and logos. JPEG files tend to produce visual artifacts and blur the edges of such images.
PNG to 3D Converters: Multiple image formats, including PNG, are compatible with our Autoconverter and Automesher Application tools. These converters allow you to import, export, and convert PNG images to different 3D formats, such as STL, 3DS, FBX, 3DM, and many others.
