Output Formats Generated
The result of working with DX can be a 3D abstract
scene.
Although DX has a renderer, there may be reasons for
wishing to export 3D scenes - for example,
to make it available on the Web,
to make a high quality still or video
or to analyse it in a VR system.
DX generates its own geometry format and other modules via the
Data Explorer Repository
can create other geometry formats.
Supplier and Cost
DX is commercially available from
IBM
.
