GLTF (.gltf, .glb)

[Experimental]
  • Export supports the GLTF file format.

Background & Context

    • MIME type: model/gltf+binary, model/gltf+json
    • Graphics Language Transmission Format.
    • 3D graphics format.
    • Commonly used to share 3D scenes and models.
    • Developed in 2015 by the Kronos Group.
    • ASCII or binary format.
    • Provides schemas for standard encoding of 3D scenes and models.

Export

  • Export["file.gltf",expr] exports a 3D object to a binary GLTF file. The expr can be any 3D geometric region that is ConstantRegionQ or a Graphics3D object.
  • The export format can be specified with Export["file",expr,"GLTF"].
  • File formats and file extensions used by the GLTF specification include:
  • "GLTF"ASCII encoded
    "GLB"binary encoded
  • See the following reference pages for full general information:
  • Exportexport to a file
    CloudExportexport to a cloud object
    ExportStringexport to a string
    ExportByteArrayexport to a byte array
