- Description
- A Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) file is a standard file format used for representing 3D interactive vector graphics, designed particularly for the world wide web. With the extension .wrl or sometimes .vrml, these files allow for the creation and sharing of virtual reality environments that users can navigate and interact with online. VRML files support features such as 3D shapes, textures, animations, and user interactivity, making them suitable for a wide range of applications such as gaming and simulations.
- 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.
