Hi,

            I am building an engineering application using
Visualization Toolkit (VTK) and Java. We are looking into an option
where we can port the existing application into Java 3D. However I
have observed that Java 3D is not a domain specific implementation and
the kind of algorithm that we are looking into will have to be
implemented by us. For example, VTK offers algorithm to identify the
unconnected parts, probe a 3D geometry with a plane etc. Do we have
any similar algorithm implementation in Java 3d? If I am not clear,
please let me know so that I can give a more detailed explanation.



Thanks and Regards

Java3D does not have these algorithms, you would have to code them
yourself.  j3d.org has some intersection tools which would be a useful
start, but
nothing like marching cubes or other viz techniques.

We've gotten a project to enhance the VRML output of VTK.  This will
make it easier to load VTK generated files into Java3D via
a vrml loader like Xj3D(www.xj3d.org).  The first pass will be to
improve the static generation of VRML files.  In a further pass we might
provide a direct
link between VTK calls and VRML worlds.  Our goal is to make writing
visualizations of sonar data easier.
