It contains data related to Character Studio, such as biped skeleton and morph targets, as well as animation data. The data can be used to create 3D characters for animation and games.
- Stl is the standard 3D data transmission file format mainly used for 3D printing. STL contains surface geometry descriptions of 3D objects and it uses a series of triangles to describe the surface geometry of a 3D model.
