PLY to X3D Conversion: FAQ
What are PLY files?
PLY or "Polygon File Format" is an extension used for storing data collected with 3D scanners. It is also known as "Stanford Triangle Format" because it was created at Stanford University in the mid-1990s, with a design inspired by Wavefront's OBJ vector format. A PLY file contains a 3D description of an object through a list of nominally flat polygons, as well as info regarding color, transparency, textures etc.
What are X3D files?
The X3D file format is an open standard file format used for 3D graphics and animation. It is based on the VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) format and is designed to be platform-independent, allowing for easy sharing and distribution of 3D models. X3D files can store information about geometry, textures, lighting, animation, and interactivity. The format is supported by a variety of 3D software applications and web browsers with the appropriate plugins or extensions.
