DataViewer Distribution and Specifications


DataViewer can either be used as a Tk widget in any language that you can use Tk. This combination allows custom C++ modules to easily be written which perform general geometry rendering and computational tasks while the GUI design and basic data handling is performed in the scripting language. DataViewer supports animation, stereo viewing, the Logitech Magellan 6D mouse, as well as output to VRML.
