Introduction

vtkGLTFImporter can import glTF 2.0 files.

The GL Transmission Format (glTF) is an API-neutral runtime asset delivery format. A glTF asset is represented by:

• A JSON-formatted file (.gltf) containing a full scene description: node hierarchy, materials, cameras, as well as descriptor information for meshes, animations, and other constructs
• Binary files (.bin) containing geometry and animation data, and other buffer-based data
• Image files (.jpg, .png) for textures

Supported extensions:

• KHR_draco_mesh_compression
• KHR_lights_punctual
• KHR_materials_unlit
• KHR_materials_ior
• KHR_materials_specular
• KHR_materials_variants
• EXT_texture_webp
• EXT_texture_avif
