Graphics Language Transmission File
A file format developed and maintained by the Khronos Group organization, a consortium of industry leaders that creates open standards for graphics, media, and parallel computing. It is designed to facilitate the efficient storage and exchange of 3D models.
Key Features of GLTF/GLB
GLTF Versions:
There are two versions of the GLTF file format that are available:GLTF 1.0:
Supports basic geometry, simple materials with textures, basic skeletal animations with joint hierarchies, scenes with a single root node and a hierarchy of child nodes, etc.GLTF 2.0:
Supports more features, such as PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials, Draco compression, advanced skeletal animations, skinning, morph targets, etc.
ASCII and Binary Modes:
By default, a GLTF file is saved in ASCII text mode, which is human-readable and easy to edit. To save a GLTF file with all referenced texture images in binary mode, the GLB file extension should be used. This reduces the file size and the number of files.Embedded Textures:
GLTF/GLB files allow for a more streamlined and efficient way to manage 3D assets. By storing textures directly within the file, these formats eliminate the need for separate image files, making the 3D model self-contained and easier to distribute.
GLTF/GLB File Conversion
Autoconverter and Automesher Application allow you to import and export GLTF and GLB files, and convert them into various other 3D file formats. Our products also support the use of Draco compression, which can significantly reduce the size of GLTF and GLB files without compromising visual fidelity.
Graphics Interchange Format
Since its creation in 1987, GIF has become one of the internet's most recognizable image formats. Known for supporting both static images and simple animations, GIF remains popular despite its 256-color limitation. Though newer formats exist, GIF's universal browser support and nostalgic charm ensure it remains widely used today.
Key Features of GIF
Web-Friendly Compression:
GIFs use a special compression technique called LZW, making them surprisingly small in size without sacrificing image quality. This makes them ideal for web use, where loading speed is crucial.GIF Color:
With a color palette of up to 256 colors, GIFs offer a vibrant yet concise way to represent graphics and logos. While not ideal for photorealistic images, this limitation often leads to a charming, retro aesthetic.Animation Powerhouse:
The true magic of GIFs lies in their ability to create short, looping animations. From simple banner ads to hilarious reaction memes, GIFs offer a dynamic way to capture attention and convey emotions.
