Convert COB file

COB to XYZ ......

Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to the COB and XYZ interoperability and exchange that can help you with the COB to XYZ conversion.


COB COB File

COB (Caligari TrueSpace Object) is a 3D object file format developed by Caligari Corporation. The COB file can be encoded in ASCII and binary formats and in general binary files should be used as they are smaller and faster for programs to process. Our Autoconverter and Automesher Application COB file converters, can read and import COB files thanks to the open asset import library. It allows us to support custom materials, textures, UV coordinates and other common 3D object properties.


XYZ XYZ Point Cloud File

XYZ (Point cloud data) is a file extension used for ASCII text files with the point cloud data. Each row of XYZ file contains 3D point coordinates separated by a special character, usually a TAB and optionally 3D normal vector coordinates for that point. The normal vectors for the points are optional as it is possible to generate them on the fly based on the point cloud structure. Autoconverter is our XYZ file converter which allows you to automatically reconstruct the mesh surface from the point cloud data. Autoshaper is another XYZ file converter which allows you to reconstruct a smooth NURBS surface from scattered points stored in the XYZ file. The alternative file extension for point cloud data can be either ASC or TXT.
