Convert OBJ to PLY
Convert OBJ 3D models to PLY format, edit and optimize 3D models online and free.
The OBJ (Object) file extension, related to Wavefront 3D Object, is a standard 3D image format developed by Wavefront Technologies. It is widely used for representing 3D geometry, including the position of vertices, texture coordinates, and normals. OBJ files are versatile and commonly employed in various CAD, 3D printing, and computer graphics applications due to their simplicity and compatibility with numerous 3D modeling programs. Introduced in the 1980s, the OBJ format has become a cornerstone in the industry, facilitating easy exchange and rendering of 3D models across different platforms.
The Polygon File Format (PLY) is a versatile file format designed for storing 3D polygonal models. It originated at Stanford University in the mid-1990s to support the Stanford 3D Scanning Repository project. The primary purpose of PLY is to efficiently represent and exchange three-dimensional data, including vertex coordinates, colors, and normals. Its flexibility makes it valuable for various applications such as 3D scanning, computer graphics, and 3D printing. PLY files can store both ASCII and binary data, making them adaptable for diverse processing needs within computer technology.
