WRL

The WRL file format is a 3D-based model format originally created in the 1990's that was aimed at website usage. The format is text-based and contains 3D geometry data such as vertices, faces, simple shapes, material information, and more.

This format, when launched, was hoped to become a standard 3D format; however, due to the large file sizes, it didn't see wide adoption, although it is a supported format within some CAD software applications. It was later superseded by the X3D file format, which shares most of the functionality of WRL files.

Sample WRL Files

Here we have some example WRL files for you to download and use in your own projects.

Cube

Cube

The classic cube example is stored as a WRL file. Within the WRL file, this cube is stored as a sequence of 12 triangles.

Sphere

Sphere

A straight-forward Sphere stored within a WRL file. The Sphere originated as a STEP file that was converted to the WRL format by our STEP to WRL tool.

Pyramid

Pyramid

A pyramid-shaped WRL 3D model made up of 5 vertices and 6 triangles. The pyramid uses colored vertices to create a smooth blend of color between them.
