VRML to XYZ
Please find below the list of our other useful resources related to VRML and XYZ interoperability and exchange that could help you with the VRML to XYZ conversion.
VRML Virtual Reality Modeling Language File
VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) is an ASCII file format to store 3D objects with the other attributes e.g. light sources, materials, textures and world transformations, required to render the whole 3D scene in the web browser. The modern and more advanced replacement for VRML is now X3D file format. Our Autoconverter and Automesher Application software can import & export VRML files and convert them into other file formats. However please note that material textures are only processed for theIndexedFaceSet shape geometries saved in the VRML file.
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.
