Collada File
An open-standard, XML-based file format engineered for flawless 3D asset interoperability across digital content creation platforms. Initially created by Sony and currently maintained by the Khronos Group, DAE functions as a universal bridge for exchanging digital assets - including materials, mesh geometries, and hierarchical 3D scene nodes - between diverse 3D software ecosystems.
DAE Format Capabilities
Reusable Geometry Components:
You can store and reuse geometry instances that are referenced by multiple objects in your DAE scene, saving memory and disk space.Multiple Texture Images and Coordinates:
You can assign different texture images and texture coordinates to each face of your DAE model, creating complex and realistic materials.Color Transparency and Named Groups:
You can control the opacity and color of your mesh, as well as organize your DAE objects into named groups for easy selection and manipulation.
DAE File Conversion
Our Autoconverter and Autoshaper applications provide robust support for processing and converting DAE files with maximum fidelity.
