Open Inventor 6.0
Open Inventor 6.0 3-D interactive data visualization software now includes the VolumeViz LDM (large data management), ScaleViz and MeshViz extensions, which enable interactive management and display of large data sets. Used in a range of markets including oil and gas, automotive, aerospace and medical visualization, the software facilitates functionalities including crack-free NURBS (non-uniform rational B-splines), which are a surface elements used in CAD modeling, and full OpenGL support for shaders, which are 3-D graphics programs used to determine the final surface properties of an object or image. The program is also available as a .NET application programming interface (API), allowing programmers to access its functionality through the languages supported by .NET.
