There is also Qt3d that is much one you are looking for. It is utility class to making easier to create OpenGl apps with using OpenGL API when graphicswiew and graphics iten is more heavy and hign level. It is least worth of checking up http://labs.trolltech.com/blogs/2009/11/10/qt3d-features-in-qt-46/ >It would be nice if Flandry (the "reporter" on the GSoC ideas page) >could elaborate a bit on what the idea is exactly.
