FBX (Filmbox) 3D Model File Format
The FBX file format is a proprietary, industry-standard format for 3D models, assets, and animations. Originally developed by Kaydara and later acquired by Autodesk, FBX has become a universal 3D interchange format. It enables seamless transfer of 3D data - including complex hierarchies, materials, textures, and animations - between modeling, animation, and rendering software, ensuring consistent and efficient 3D workflows.
Key Features of FBX Files
- Embedded Textures: FBX files store texture images directly within the 3D file, eliminating the need for external assets and ensuring consistent model appearance across different platforms and applications.
- Reusable Geometry Components: FBX supports modular storage of geometry components, enhancing model consistency, reusability, and efficiency.
- Hierarchical Assembly Structures: The format captures complex assembly structures and object hierarchies, enabling detailed and organized 3D scenes.
- Animation Support: FBX files can embed animation data - including skeletons, keyframes, and motion capture - making them ideal for game development, film production, and AR/VR applications (though animation support may vary between software).

Universal 3D Model Exchange - U3D File Format
The Universal 3D (U3D) format is an open, royalty-free 3D file standard designed for efficient sharing of 3D models across different platforms and applications. Originally developed by the 3D Industry Forum and now standardized by ECMA International (ECMA-363), U3D files offer compressed storage of 3D triangular meshes, along with attributes like color, transparency, and texture mapping. U3D is widely known for enabling interactive 3D graphics directly within PDF documents.
Main Features of U3D Files
- Open and Royalty-Free: Maintained as an international standard, ensuring no licensing fees for developers and users.
- 3D PDF Support: Integrates seamlessly with PDF files (ISO 32000 standard), allowing users to embed, view, and interact with 3D models inside Adobe Acrobat Reader and other compatible viewers.
- Efficient Compression: Stores 3D geometry and properties in a compact, binary format optimized for fast transmission and document embedding.
- Cross-Platform Compatibility: Enables 3D model viewing across Windows, macOS, and Linux without requiring proprietary software.
Convert U3D Files to Other 3D Formats
Easily convert U3D models to popular 3D formats with our Autoconverter and Automesher Application. Powered by Intel's open-source IFX library, our solutions allow high-fidelity two-way conversion between U3D and formats like STL, OBJ, SKP (SketchUp), DAE (Collada), STEP, and X3D.
