RAW File Format - POV-Ray Triangle Mesh Export
The RAW file format used in POV-Ray is a minimal, ASCII-based 3D model format that stores only triangle vertex coordinates (X, Y, Z). Commonly referred to as a triangle mesh format, RAW files are ideal for simple 3D model representations in computational geometry, physics simulations, or custom rendering pipelines where textures and materials are not required.
Key Features of RAW Files
- Minimal Structure: No headers, metadata, or material references - just vertex coordinates per triangle.
- ASCII-Based: Plain text format readable in any text editor, allowing quick manual edits and debugging.
- Triangle Mesh Focus: Designed exclusively for representing 3D geometry as connected triangle vertices.
- Lightweight: Compact file size perfect for processing large vertex datasets without overhead.
RAW File Conversion
Convert RAW files to popular 3D formats with Automesher Application and Autoconverter. Our RAW file converters support output to STL, OBJ, STEP, DAE, and SKP formats while preserving all triangle mesh data. Powered by the Open Asset Import Library, we ensure accurate transformation of your RAW triangle meshes into formats compatible with modern CAD, BIM, or game development workflows.
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.
