VizUp Streamline Professional enables you to reduce the number of polygons in a complex 3D model while retaining the quality and appearance of the original. Supports Wavefront .OBJ, VRML 2.0/97 and StereoLitho (.STL) file formats.
Features: 3D model created with professional modeling tools use hundreds of thousands of polygons to render them in true colors. To create any real-time visualization, that includes moving the model around, calls for re-rendering these models in new orientations. This needs to be in real time to simulate smooth movements. That represents a huge computation load. One approach is to increase the graphics computing power. The other effective strategy could be to reduce the number of polygons to represent the object. So that re-calculation of newer vertices and the color rendering is less compute intensive. It enables you to reduce the number of polygons in a complex 3D model. The quality and appearance of the original is retained. The reduction produces a 3D model with a well-balanced level of details and size. That, quite often is good enough for use in virtual reality and real-time visualization systems. VizUp automatically picks all necessary parameters without any need for user intervention. Supports Wavefront .OBJ, VRML 2.0/97 and StereoLitho (.STL) file formats. With VizUp Professional in place, the process of polygon reduction is simple and does not require any advanced knowledge of CAD or CAE. It compresses the model for all possible ratios at once. This means you can see the effect of any compression level instantly with a click on the corresponding ratio button. Thus, one compression cycle makes 10%, 20%, 30%, and other ratios models at the same time. You can compare the results and pick the one that you like in terms of appearance and quality. Visual fidelity is maintained even at high compression.
Overall: Very easy to use polygon reducer. It is very handy if you are into creating, using 3D models for visualization/animation.
