Developers and professionals in need of a solution for processing and editing 3D triangular meshes
About MeshLab
The open source system for processing and editing 3D triangular meshes. It provides a set of tools for editing, cleaning, healing, inspecting, rendering, texturing and converting meshes. It offers features for processing raw data produced by 3D digitization tools/devices and for preparing models for 3D printing. In this version we introduce support to several file formats (.gltf, .glb, .nxs, .nxz, .e57) and a brand new plugin for exact mesh booleans. The 3D data alignment phase (also known as registration) is a fundamental step in the pipeline for processing 3D scanned data. MeshLab provides a powerful tool for moving the different meshes into a common reference system, able to manage large set of range-maps. MeshLab implements a fine tuned ICP one-to-one alignment step, followed by a global bundle adjustment error-distribution step. The alignment can be performed on meshes and point clouds coming from several sources, including active (both short- and long-range) scanners.

Meshroom
Presentation of the workflow to create a textured mesh from still images in Meshroom. Meshroom is a 3D reconstruction software based on the open source Photogrammetric Computer Vision Framework AliceVision. Improve robustness of sift features extraction on challenging images: update default values, add new filtering and add dsp-sift variation. Improve mesh quality with a new post-processing. Cells empty/full status are filtered by solid angle ratio to favor smoothness. On some distributions (e.g Ubuntu), you may have conflicts between native drivers and mesa drivers, resulting in an empty black window. AliceVision does not collect or transmit any personal (or system related) information without the user's consent.

ADA 3D STL Viewer
The STL Viewer is FREE software for the visualization of STL or OBJ meshes created in packages such as 3D Studio Max, MAYA, and Z Brush, modeled in CAD systems, or generated from 3D digitalization of physical objects. With its simplified user interface, fast rendering, and ability to handle even big volumes of data the STL Viewer is an ideal tool for examining polygonal meshes. STL file format is a common format for 3D digitizing, rapid prototyping, animation, and 3D data archiving software. If you receive triangular mesh data containing CAD models, scan data, or 3D designs you can quickly see it in the viewer. You may also find it useful if you are a company or person providing such data to your customers and need a visualization tool to give away with it. Loading polygonal meshes in STL and OBJ file formats. Quickly resetting the object in default views, front, back, left, right, top and bottom.
