The geometry engine is the software that you use to do things like fuse
or intersect solids, sweep 2d shapes along a curve to generate a 3d
shape, etc... From these you get faces. lines and points that you pass
on to something else (like OpenGL) to render. Open Cascade is free and quite good. The ACIS kernel is what is at the heart of AutoCAD. Parasolid drives Solidworks. I was looking for advice on using one of these geometry toolkits with OSG. I assumed it was a common configuration, but I think I might be wrong about that. Cory Sukender wrote: Hi Cory, What do you mean by "geometry engine"? I guess you'll be able to easily create a kind of exporter that converts your geometry to an OSG/OpenGL one. Perhaps geometries would even be directly read and added to Geodes. I don't know HOOPS, but be aware that OSG is "only" (!) a scene graph (with many features and plugins), but not a CAD/infrastructure/mining/whatever software.Please tell us if you find useful things.
