Basic import, rendering, and interaction with +a 3D object can be implemented in just a few lines of code, and +programmer efficiency is greatly increased compared with programming +directly with OpenGL. OpenGL code and Coin code can co-exist in the +same application, which makes gradual migration from OpenGL to Coin +possible. + +Coin is fully compatible with SGI Open Inventor 2.1, the de facto +standard for 3D visualization and visual simulation software in the +scientific and engineering community. Additional features in Coin +include VRML97 support, 3D sound, 3D textures, and parallel rendering on +multiple processors. |
