The package consists of two components:

  • WebGL 3D viewer — the component responsible for CAD rendering and visualization in a web,
  • Presentation Generator (BSON generator) — the component responsible for conversion of CAD files to internal binary presentation format (BSON) that can be displayed in a web browser with help of WebGL 3D viewer component.

Standard functionality* included into Web 3D Viewer:

  • Navigation and rotation
  • Standard views and various display modes
  • Measurements
  • Annotations
  • Clipping planes and capping
  • Exploded view
  • Snapshots
  • Object browser, synchronization of the selection between browser and 3D view
* Some additional functionality can be provided as a specific development based on other Open Cascade Platform components.

Start your web project with a solid basis or finish a puzzle with a missing piece:

  • Create a stand-alone solution to view, analyze and share CAD models online
  • Enrich your website with an interactive 3D viewing capacity
  • Build in a 3D viewing capability into existing web-based solution or application

What makes Web 3D Viewer stand out:

  • Apart from a simple viewing capability you receive a set of specific engineering-oriented features needed for CAD models analysis
  • You make one-time payment for the development toolkit: no subscriptions and prolongations are required
  • Time-proven expertise and ready-to-use development tools to customize your future web viewer solution
  • Unlimited number of models and storage – we offer you flexibility and scalability from the very beginning
