DAE File Format (COLLADA) - 3D Model Exchange Standard
DAE (Digital Asset Exchange) is a widely supported, XML-based 3D file format designed for seamless interoperability between digital content creation tools. Developed by Sony and maintained by the Khronos Group, the COLLADA standard enables the efficient exchange of complex 3D assets - including mesh geometries, materials, skeletons, and animation data—across different software platforms.
Key Features of DAE/COLLADA Files
- Reusable Geometry: Enables multiple objects to reference the same geometry instance, minimizing file size and improving performance.
- Multi-Texture Support: Supports advanced material properties with multiple texture images and coordinate sets for each mesh face.
- Opacity and Object Grouping: Allows control over transparency and organizes objects into named groups for easier scene editing and manipulation.
Convert DAE Files to Other 3D Formats
With Autoconverter and Autoshaper, you can accurately convert DAE (COLLADA) files to other popular 3D formats such as STL, OBJ, SKP, DWG, 3MF, and more. These tools use the open-source OpenCOLLADA framework to ensure full support for both COLLADA 1.4 and 1.5 specifications. Preserve animations, materials, and scene hierarchy with reliable conversion powered by OpenCOLLADA.
Streamline your 3D pipeline with powerful DAE file conversion tools - ideal for game developers, animators, and CAD professionals working across platforms.
X3D File - Extensible 3D Graphics Format
X3D (Extensible 3D) is an open-standard, royalty-free 3D file format developed by the Web3D Consortium. Based on XML, X3D is designed for real-time 3D rendering and interactive scenes directly within web environments. It is the official successor to VRML and supports animations, shading, interactivity, and integration with modern web technologies like HTML5 and WebGL.
Key Features of X3D and X3DB Files
- VRML Successor: X3D offers backward compatibility with VRML while expanding functionality with modern web capabilities.
- Web-Ready Format: Seamlessly integrates with X3DOM, Three.js, and other HTML5/JavaScript libraries for interactive 3D graphics on the web.
- Scene Graph Structure: Organizes 3D content hierarchically, allowing precise control over transformations, lighting, geometry, and animations.
- Text-Based XML Encoding: Human-readable file structure makes it easy to edit, validate, and manage X3D content in development workflows.
Convert X3D Files to Other 3D Formats
Our Autoconverter and Automesher Application provide powerful tools to convert X3D and X3DB files into popular 3D formats including STL, OBJ, 3DS, SKP, and STEP. Maintain full scene integrity, geometry, and materials while transitioning between web-based and CAD-ready formats.
