What is a 3D OBJ File?

OBJ (or .obj) is a geometry definition file format first developed by Wavefront Technologies. It's one of the most widely used and supported 3D model formats in the industry.

An OBJ file contains several key elements:

  • Vertex data - 3D coordinates that define the shape of the model
  • Texture coordinates - Information about how textures map onto the model
  • Vertex normals - Vectors that define how light interacts with the surface
  • Polygon faces - Instructions for how vertices connect to form surfaces

OBJ files are often accompanied by MTL (Material Template Library) files that define the visual appearance of the model, including colors, textures, and reflectivity properties.

The format is valued for its simplicity and universal compatibility, making it ideal for exchanging 3D models between different software applications and platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I do with the OBJ Viewer?

Our OBJ Viewer allows you to upload and view 3D models in OBJ format directly in your browser. You can rotate, zoom, and inspect models from all angles without needing specialized software.

What is an OBJ file?

OBJ (Wavefront Object) is a widely used 3D file format that stores geometric data including the position of each vertex, texture coordinates, faces, and more. It's an open format that's supported by most 3D modeling applications.

How do I use the OBJ Viewer?

Simply upload your OBJ file using the upload button, and the 3D model will appear in the viewer. You can then use your mouse to rotate the model, scroll to zoom in/out, and right-click and drag to pan the view.

What size OBJ files can I upload?

The viewer supports OBJ files up to 50MB in size. Larger files may take longer to load depending on your internet connection speed.

Is my 3D model data secure?

Yes, your 3D models are processed entirely in your browser. We never upload or store your models on our servers, ensuring complete privacy and security of your intellectual property.

Can I download or export models from the viewer?

The OBJ Viewer is designed for viewing only. It doesn't currently support exporting to other formats or downloading modified versions of the models.

Which browsers support the OBJ Viewer?

The OBJ Viewer works best on modern browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari. Make sure your browser is updated to the latest version for optimal performance.

Do I need to upload material files with my OBJ?

For best results, you should upload both your OBJ file and any associated MTL (material) files. The viewer will attempt to load materials and textures if they're included with your upload.
