The DAE format (also known as COLLADA) is a 3D file format used to describe 3D models, meshes, and 3D worlds using a simple text-based structure. The format was introduced in 2004 by Sony Computer Entertainment and is currently managed by the Khronos Group.
DAE files are a text/XML-based file format containing 3D geometric information used to describe 3D objects and meshes such as vertices, faces, animations, materials, camera/lighting elements, and other related metadata. The format has widespread usage and support, with applications such as Blender and MeshLab being able to read and write to it.
Here we have some example DAE files for you to download and use in your own projects.
Cube
The classic cube example is stored as a DAE file. Within the DAE file, this cube is stored as a sequence of 12 triangles.
Sphere
A straight-forward Sphere stored within a DAE file. The Sphere originated as a STEP file that was converted to the DAE format by our STEP to DAE tool.
