GLB Graphics Language Transmission File

A file format developed and maintained by the Khronos Group organization, a consortium of industry leaders that creates open standards for graphics, media, and parallel computing. It is designed to facilitate the efficient storage and exchange of 3D models.

Key Features of GLTF/GLB

  • GLTF Versions:

    There are two versions of the GLTF file format that are available:
    • GLTF 1.0:
      Supports basic geometry, simple materials with textures, basic skeletal animations with joint hierarchies, scenes with a single root node and a hierarchy of child nodes, etc.
    • GLTF 2.0:
      Supports more features, such as PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials, Draco compression, advanced skeletal animations, skinning, morph targets, etc.
  • ASCII and Binary Modes:

    By default, a GLTF file is saved in ASCII text mode, which is human-readable and easy to edit. To save a GLTF file with all referenced texture images in binary mode, the GLB file extension should be used. This reduces the file size and the number of files.
  • Embedded Textures:

    GLTF/GLB files allow for a more streamlined and efficient way to manage 3D assets. By storing textures directly within the file, these formats eliminate the need for separate image files, making the 3D model self-contained and easier to distribute.

GLTF/GLB File Conversion

Autoconverter and Automesher Application allow you to import and export GLTF and GLB files, and convert them into various other 3D file formats. Our products also support the use of Draco compression, which can significantly reduce the size of GLTF and GLB files without compromising visual fidelity.


XYZ Point Cloud File

A file extension that is used for ASCII text files that contain point cloud data. Point cloud data is a collection of 3D points that represent the shape of an object or a scene. Each row in an XYZ file consists of 3D point coordinates, typically separated by a special character like a TAB.

Key Features of XYZ

  • Data Structure:

    Each line represents one point (X Y Z coordinates).
  • Minimalism:

    No headers, metadata, or binary encoding.
  • No Topology:

    Pure vertex data without mesh connections.
  • Industry Use:

    Common in surveying, autonomous vehicles, and heritage preservation.

XYZ File Conversion

Autoconverter reconstructs polygonal meshes creating lightweight surface approximations ideal for visualization and 3D printing. For engineering and manufacturing applications requiring mathematical precision, Autoshaper generates smooth NURBS surfaces directly from XYZ point data, providing the accurate surface representation needed for CAD/CAM workflows.
