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.
Transform X3D into production-ready 3D models for printing, design, or virtual visualization. Try our X3D file converter now and simplify your 3D workflow today!
IV File - Open Inventor 3D Scene Format
The IV file format, also known as the Open Inventor format, is a text-based 3D graphics standard originally developed by Silicon Graphics (SGI). Designed for complete 3D scene representation, IV files use hierarchical scene graphs to define geometry, lighting, materials, and textures. The format played a key role in early 3D development and is tightly integrated with the Open Inventor API - an object-oriented C++ toolkit used in scientific visualization, CAD, and simulation.
Key Features of IV Files
- Readable File Structure: Human-friendly ASCII format that organizes 3D content using nested nodes for easier editing and scripting.
- Scene Graph Hierarchy: Defines parent-child relationships between 3D objects using a directed acyclic graph (DAG) structure.
- Rich Visual Metadata: Includes lighting, shading, camera settings, and full material definitions (specular, ambient, diffuse, transparency).
- Texture Support: Handles both procedural and raster-based textures using UV mapping coordinates.
- Legacy Compatibility: Ideal for scientific and engineering applications that still rely on Open Inventor-based platforms.
Convert IV Files to FBX, glTF, OBJ, and More
Use Autoconverter to easily convert IV files to modern 3D formats like FBX, glTF, STL, OBJ, and DAE. Our IV file converter preserves full scene structure, materials, and geometry, bridging the gap between legacy and modern 3D workflows. Whether you are updating legacy data or working in cross-platform 3D environments, Autoconverter makes IV file conversion seamless and reliable.
