INTEGRATION OF 3RD PARTY GEOMETRY FOR VISUALIZATION OF LARGE DATA SETS SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

A system provides the ability to import large engineering 3D models from a primary 3D rendering software into a secondary 3D rendering software that does not have the tools of the resources to render the larger 3D model on its own. The system uses a plugin to combine 3D data from the two software sources, and then return the combined 3D data to the secondary 3D rendering software. Components of the system can be remote or cloud based, and the system facilitates video streaming of 3D rendered models that can be manipulated on any computer capable of supporting a video stream.
