MathGL3d 4

MathGL3d Version 4.0 is an interactive, OpenGL-based, 3D-graphics add-on for advanced scientific visualization with Mathematica. It allows real-time interaction with Mathematica graphics, with features such as rotation, animation, visual viewpoint, and light-source editing. The OpenGL-rendered images can be pasted into Mathematica notebooks and saved as PNG or EPS bitmap pictures. MathGL3d also exports to many common 3D file formats, including POV-Ray, VRML 2.0, QuickDraw 3D, DXF, and smooth shaded PostScript, and can read and import DXF and Geomview OFF files.

Key Features

• Intuitive and user-friendly interface to interact with 3D graphics
• Hardware-accelerated volume rendering for all supported platforms
• Illumination of lines
• Bump mapping
• Optimized POV-Ray export
• Alias export

The package comes with electronic documentation, in both PDF and Mathematica Help Browser formats.
