Ivf++ is a small class library encapsulating OpenGL functionality. It comes with ~10 tutorials and a user's guide. See homepage for latest news and updates.

IrrLua - A Lua front end to the Irrlicht game engine

sdljava is a java binding to the SDL library.

Educational 3D graphics library and examples using OpenGL and software rendering. Companion code to the books "Linux 3D Graphics Programming" and "Advanced Linux 3D Graphics Programming" by Norman Lin.

An open source 3D zbuffer graphics viewer, optimized for for plastic building brick instruction sheets. See also www.gyugyi.com/l3g0/ldlite

A software tool enabling the user to browse through an image stack created by a confocal microscope. Points can be plotted through the stack, producing a digital 3D representation, which can be viewed in 3D and compared with other plots.

LexoView is 3D model viewer with focus on CAD data visualization. It is written in Open Inventor.

LightTrace is a simple but versatile object-oriented raytracer that renders a scene and saves the image as a bitmap. The program is controlled by editing a text configuration file. A compiled Win32 executable is provided.

Lumina is a crossplatform IDE for OpenGL GLSL shaders. The flexible ECMA script based language is used for tools and rendering controll. It enables shader based animation, building renderer prototypes for deferred shading, depth peeling or HDR rendering.

MacGLide is a shared library for Apple Macintosh computers that emulates 3Dfx Voodoo Graphics hardware. It makes it possible to run games originally made for 3Dfx/Glide without the hardware by translating Glide-function calls to OpenGL.

MindGate is a virtual reality multiuser client - server system written in Java. The purpose of the system is to provide communication, persistence, 3d streaming support for users which are imersed into virtual reality worlds - stored anywhere on the Web.

Simulates a biologically diverse tropical island, and the ape inhabitants cognitive processes. For MacOS X, iPad, Windows and Linux. Features a non-polygonal graphics engine and a command-line version

Open5:Open Source Framework for Interactive Virtual Environment. Open5 proposes a modular architecture and a flexible event loop to fit any VR/MR/AR setup and to support multi-input configurations using Open Technologies such as OpenSG and OpenTracker.

OGLFT is an interface library between OpenGL and FreeType 2 for rendering text. It supports all font file types supported by FreeType 2. Text can be rendered as bitmap, anti-aliased grayscale pixmaps, as outlined and filled polygons, or as 3D solids.

High quality volume graphics on consumer PC hardware. This GPL project is a graphics application for the visualization of 3D volume data on uniform rectilinear grid, as they arise from tomographic measurement or numerical simulation in computational scie

2D/3D Scene Graph rendering engine for Linux/Unix/Win32 layered atop OpenGL. Supports stereoscopy, volume rendering, 2D/3D texture mapping, picking, LOD and view-dependent operations, cross-platform text, constant-rate rendering and image-based data.

Piranha is an open source OpenGL demoscene.

Allows communications between Poser (www.e-frontier.com) and external applications. Implements loading of files and saving of content to and from Poser from external applications (like Windows Explorer, P3dO, Advance Library).

A map editor for the PC game Praetorians. Programmed in the C++ programming language and uses the OpenGL computer graphics API.

A small set of routines for reading of archives 3ds, support for animations , textures and collision detect, compatible with pyopengl and pygame.

QuadRay engine is a realtime raytracing project aimed at full SIMD utilization on ARM, MIPS, POWER and x86 architectures. The efficient use of SIMD is achieved by processing four rays at a time to match SIMD register width (hence the name). The rendering core of the engine is written in a unified SIMD assembler allowing single assembler code to be compatible with different processor architectures, thus reducing the need to maintain multiple parallel versions. At present, Intel SSE/SSE2/SSE4 and AVX/AVX2/AVX-512 (32/64-bit x86 ISAs), ARMv7 NEON/NEONv2, ARMv8 AArch32 and AArch64 NEON, SVE (32/64-bit ARM ISAs), MIPS 32/64-bit r5/r6 MSA and POWER 32/64-bit VMX/VSX (little/big-endian ISAs) are mostly implemented (/w horizontal reductions) although scalar improvements, wider SIMD vectors with zeroing/merging predicates in 3/4-operand instructions are planned as extensions to current 2/3-operand SPMD-driven vertical SIMD ISA. See README file.

High-level 3D graphics library. Supports retained and immediate mode rendering, an extensible file format, plug-in renderers, a wide range of high level geometries, hierarchical models, and a consistent and object-orientated API.

A plugin-based raytracer for educational and other use, supporting XML-format scenefiles, POVray and Polyray scenefiles. Other facilities it will offer include Lindermayer Systems, AVI/OGM (Ogg Vorbis)/Matroska animations and a Perl/PHP web interface

Raja stands for "Ray-Tracer in Java". The Raja project intends to build a complete modern Ray-Tracer using the Java language.

RAY++ is a collection of C++ classes needed for ray tracing (shapes, surfaces, cameras etc.). The object-oriented design makes it easy to extend the package.
