GL Transmission Format Binary (.glb)

The GLB file extension, short for GL Transmission Format Binary, is a binary version of the GLTF format used for efficiently transmitting and loading 3D graphics. Introduced in 2015, it encapsulates 3D models, textures, materials, animations, and scenes into a single, compact file, making it ideal for web applications, mobile apps, VR, AR, and gaming. Its self-contained nature ensures faster load times and easier sharing across platforms.

Stereolithography File (.stl)

STL, short for Stereolithography, is a widely used file format in the realm of 3D printing and computer-aided design (CAD). Introduced by 3D Systems in 1987, it represents the surfaces of a 3D object through a collection of triangles, facilitating precise and efficient model creation. Utilized across various industries such as engineering, manufacturing, and healthcare, STL files are critical for prototyping and producing complex geometries. Their simplicity and compatibility with numerous software applications have cemented STL's importance in the digital fabrication landscape.
