This project is no longer valid. See vpython.org.

Importer library to import assets from different common 3D file formats such as Collada, Blend, Obj, X, 3DS, LWO, MD5, MD2, MD3, MDL, MS3D and a lot of other formats. The data is stored in an own in-memory data-format, which can be easily processed. www.open3mod.com/ is a 3D model viewer and exporter based on Assimp that is also Open Source.

LingBot-Map is a specialized project focused on mapping conversational or linguistic interactions within chatbot or AI-driven systems, providing a structured way to visualize and organize dialogue flows. It is designed to help developers understand how conversations evolve across different states, enabling better debugging and optimization of chatbot behavior. The system emphasizes mapping relationships between intents, responses, and transitions, creating a clear representation of conversational logic. It can be particularly useful in complex chatbot systems where multiple branches and conditions need to be managed effectively. The project supports extensibility, allowing developers to adapt the mapping system to different chatbot frameworks or AI models. Its design encourages clarity and transparency in conversational design, reducing ambiguity in dialogue flows. Overall, lingbot-map serves as a tool for improving the structure and reliability of conversational AI systems.

GraphCalc is a very gui graphing calculator. It has been called a good replacement for a TI-85. It is a must for any high school math student.

FrankMocap is a monocular 3D human capture system that estimates body, hand, and optionally face pose from a single RGB image or video. It regresses parametric human models (e.g., SMPL/SMPL-X) directly, producing temporally stable meshes and joint angles suitable for animation or analytics. The pipeline couples a robust 2D keypoint detector with 3D mesh regression networks and priors that keep results anatomically plausible. It can run frame-by-frame or with temporal smoothing, and includes demo apps for live webcam capture as well as batch processing. Outputs include textured meshes, joint locations, and model parameters that can be exported to common DCC tools and game engines. The codebase offers pretrained models, clear inference scripts, and utilities to visualize results, making single-camera motion capture approachable on commodity hardware. Researchers and creators use it for motion studies, AR/VR prototyping, character animation, and human-in-the-loop editing.

Converts a raw digitized polygon mesh to a clean mesh where all the occurrences of a specific set of "defects" are corrected. Holes, self-intersections, degenerate and non-manifold elements are all replaced with valid configurations.

Extensible 3D (X3D) Graphics is a royalty-free International Standard for real-time interactive 3D graphics on the Web, providing unsurpassed interoperability for 3D communications on the Web. This project includes source for example X3D scene libraries and multiple X3D codebases produced by Web3D Consortium members. All open-source contributions are welcome.

This repository is now frozen. The latest version of the RepRap project can be found at https://github.com/reprap.

Structure Synth generates 3D structures by specifying a design grammar. Even simple systems may generate surprising and complex structures. Structure Synth offers a graphical environment with multiple tabs, syntax highlighting, and OpenGL preview.

Arbaro is an implementation of the tree generating algorithm described in Jason Weber & Joseph Penn: Creation and Rendering of Realistic Trees

A parametric, feature-based, sketch-driven 3D CAD application, built around a geometrical constraint solving engine. Project is in early development stage. The FreeSG library (http://freesg.org/) is required.

The B-processor will renew the digital building model by implementing the B-model based on subdividing the project-space in connected functional and constructional spaces – a model with dynamic abilities and possibilities for effective 3D detailing
