OBJ Viewer for Android - Preview Wavefront 3D Files

The Wavefront OBJ format describes 3D geometry in plain text: vertices, faces, normals and texture coordinates. Defined first for the Advanced Visualizer package, it is now a common exchange format across 3D software. Blender, Maya and 3ds Max all write it, and model marketplaces and 3D-printing communities share huge numbers of OBJ files.

Displaying that geometry on a handset usually requires a rendering engine. GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud offers a simpler option when a preview is enough. Post an OBJ file to the REST API and receive a rendition, JPG or PNG for an image view, HTML or PDF for a document view, which any Android screen can present. Zoom and page navigation behave as they do for documents.

Worked samples are included with the Android SDK for Java, so a build entry plus one short call produces the first preview. Since 180+ file types are supported, this integration also serves the documents stored alongside your models. Testing costs nothing: open the API Explorer, then start the free trial.

For a single model, the online GroupDocs.Viewer app renders OBJ in a browser.
