Viewing models on an internet site

How can i put a model on an internet site and let people to view-rotate it?

For example Google Sketchup has an output format for internet sites, it makes 15-20 angles of views of model, model can be rotated on one axis, how can i do it with my Modeling models?

Re: Viewing models on an internet site

Modeling can export your models in any formats, including graphics formats such as VRML, U3D, XVL, eDrawings, or STL. There are viewers for all these formats, and some of those viewers can also be "embedded" in a web page, for example by means of ActiveX controls.

Have you tried the 3D PDF option, it requires a licensed module, buts it is the cat's meow.

eDrawings for CoCreate allows you to save the model in eDrawings that will easily be saved to the computer from the website to view too.

Re: Viewing models on an internet site

I don't know if the above solutions address your question, but as I read your post, my first thought was of something like 3D Content Central, which has all the infrastructure already in place. Once you upload your model to their site and install their viewer plugin you can view and rotate models. For example you can view one of my uploads: http://www.3dcontentcentral.com/parts/download-Part.aspx?id=216342&catalogid=171

Re: Viewing models on an internet site

i recommend the eDrawings option...

if you have model manager with the task agent option, simply have task agent automate the bulk creation of eDrawings formats, then simply provide the link to each model as it already resides in MM...this is one good thing about MM with web services....most objects in MM have a link available - simply give someone the link and web services will serve up the file for download. If the user on the other end has eDrawings, it will likely load right up in the browser....more more help on how to arrive at the link see the model manager customization help.

If you don't have MM, I guess you'll need to generate the eDrawings manually or automate it via LISP.

I give 3D Central a 5 star rating and thumbs up. In the past week, the assigment project given to me deals with using 80/20 T-Slotted aluminum framing system for an assembly line. All of the 80/20 models are there on 3D Central to download, snap together in CoCreate, make drawings and have our manufacturing engineers build the line. This makes my life so much better and 80/20 get the business.

The CAD file format to load the 3D Central models I had used was ACIS (SAT).

For a vendor or manufacture like yourself, uploading a file to 3D Central requires on file format from your system. 3D Central does the percise file conversion to the other CAD formats for you.

Re: Viewing models on an internet site

It's a little off topic, but here's a few other good resources for models:

Cadenas PartServer: http://portal-en.partcommunity.com/ - Although their user interface is not so great, I particularly like this one because you can select One Space Modeling, which will give you a lisp file that build the model to your native/default settings.

TraceParts: http://www.traceparts.com/ - I thought they also did lisp files, but I just checked and don't see them.

http://osd.cad.de/modelle.htm - if you're up on your German

3DModelSpace - this kind of seems that it might just an aggregator

AECCafe 3D Model Sharing - http://www.3dmodelsharing.com
