Coin is a high-level 3D graphics toolkit for developing cross-platform
|
||
|
|
real-time 3D visualization and visual simulation software.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Coin is built on OpenGL and uses scene graph data structures to render 3D
|
||
|
|
graphics in real-time. Basic import, rendering, and interaction with a
|
||
|
|
3D object can be implemented in just a few lines of code, and programmer
|
||
|
|
efficiency is greatly increased compared with programming directly with
|
||
|
|
OpenGL. OpenGL code and Coin code can co-exist in the same application,
|
||
|
|
which makes gradual migration from OpenGL to Coin possible.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Coin is fully compatible with SGI Open Inventor 2.1, the de facto standard
|
||
|
|
for 3D visualization and visual simulation software in the scientific and
|
||
|
|
engineering community. Additional features in Coin include VRML97 support,
|
||
|
|
3D sound, 3D textures, and parallel rendering on multiple processors.
