AutoCAD Drawing
Autodesk's AutoCAD is a leading software program in the field of Computer Aided Design (CAD). It is renowned for its support of the native DWG drawing format. It has the following features:
- DWG Format: The native file format of AutoCAD, which can store both 2D and 3D geometry data, as well as project metadata, such as layers, blocks, dimensions, etc. DWG files are compatible with many other CAD applications and can be easily shared and edited.
- AutoCAD Add-ons: Our Automesher Application and Automapki Application are add-ons for AutoCAD that allow you to import and export 3D and GIS data from various external file formats, such as STL, SKP, OBJ, SHP, KML, etc. These add-ons enable you to integrate geospatial data with your CAD designs and create complex 3D models from different sources.
- ObjectARX Technology: The customization technology for AutoCAD provided by Autodesk, which we use to develop our AutoCAD add-ons. ObjectARX allows us to access and manipulate the AutoCAD objects and data, as well as the user interface and commands. ObjectARX ensures that our add-ons are fully compatible and integrated with the AutoCAD environment.
Inventor File
The IV (Inventor) file format is a 3D graphics file format developed by Silicon Graphics (SGI) for representing 3D scenes and models. It is a text-based format that stores a scene graph, which consists of geometric shapes, materials, lighting, textures, and other properties that define a 3D environment. The format was widely used in the 1990s and is closely associated with the Open Inventor toolkit, a C++ library designed for 3D graphics development. Some of the features of Inventor IV files are:
- Scene Graph Representation: The IV format uses a hierarchical scene graph to represent 3D scenes. This structure allows for efficient organization and management of complex 3D models, where each node in the graph represents an object or transformation in the scene.
- Text-Based Format: IV files are human-readable text files, which makes them easy to understand, edit, and debug. This format is also easy to parse programmatically, making it versatile for various applications.
- Material and Appearance Properties: IV files can define materials with various properties such as color, shininess, transparency, and texture mapping. This allows for detailed control over the appearance of 3D objects in a scene.
IV Files Converter: Autoconverter enables you to effortlessly convert and save your 3D files into the IV (Inventor) file format, providing a seamless transition for further editing and refinement. This capability ensures that your 3D models are preserved in a format that is not only easy to read and modify but also compatible with a wide range of legacy and modern tools.
