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.
The 3DS file extension, short for 3D Studio Scene, is primarily used in 3D graphics and modeling. Introduced by Autodesk's 3D Studio, this file format facilitates the storage of 3D scenes, encompassing geometric data, texture, lighting, and camera settings. Over the years, 3DS has become a popular standard for 3D content creation, exchange, and rendering in various applications and software due to its compact binary format and broad compatibility. It has significantly contributed to the development and evolution of computer graphics and animation technologies, enabling professionals to produce intricate and realistic 3D visualizations efficiently.
