Convert Your 3D Mesh/Model ITSP Files to DAE

Our free and fast tool will convert most 3D mesh or ITSP (ImageToSTL Project) model files to a standard DAE (COLLADA - Collaborative Design Activity) file that can then be edited further in most popular 3D editing packages such as Blender or 3D printed without any further processing. Our conversion tool can also batch convert multiple ITSP files; up to 25 files at a time can be converted.

To convert your ITSP file, click the Upload button above and select the file to convert. Once selected, the file will be converted to a DAE file and will be ready for download shortly afterwards. For more information about the ITSP to DAE conversion process, see the conversion information section below.

Description

The ITSP file format is a 3D file format used to store simple 2D image data in a way that allows it to be represented in 3D space through the use of extrusion. The format is the native format of the ImageToSTL 3D Model Designer application and was devised as a means to allow users with basic knowledge of 2D bitmap drawing and editing software to create complex 3D objects suitable for 3D printing.

An ITSP file consists of a main data file containing the position, rotation, and scale of a 2D object that is to be projected into 3D space. The objects are arranged into layers, with each layer being assigned a depth, allowing 3D objects to be created. Along with the data file are PNG image files of each element, and all these files are packed into a ZIP container with the ITSP file extension.

Description

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.

DAE Notes

Our tool will save any texture files separately; these additional files will be included with your final DAE file at the time of download.

How does it work?

Converting from the ITSP file format to DAE can be a complex process, and any tool used for this conversion process needs to be able to handle a variety of data conversion tasks as well as identify any defects within the 3D model and fix them. Here we will explain the conversion process used by our tool to accurately convert your ITSP file to a valid DAE 3D model. Let's start with the conversion process, which involves the following steps:

Step 1: Read the Source ITSP File

In its simplest form, an ITSP file is a binary data file containing 3D data such as vertices, faces, normals, and more. When combined, these make up the 3D model you see on your screen.

For more information regarding the ITSP file format, please see this great article that goes into a lot of detail explaining the ITSP format.

Step 2: Process File Data

With the ITSP file data read, our tool generates an internal representation of the full 3D model and will attempt to fix any geometry issues encountered. Along with repairing any issues with the 3D model, the tool will remove any duplicated vertices and prepare the model for exporting to the DAE format.

Step 3: Saving to the DAE Format

With the conversion process entering its final stages, our tool now needs to take the in-memory 3D model we have created in step 2 and convert it to the DAE format.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the DAE file retain the textures from my ITSP file?

Yes! If your ITSP file contains textured geometry, the texture image files along with the texture coordinates (UV data) will be exported with the final DAE file.

How long does it take to convert my ITSP to DAE?

We aim to process all ITSP to DAE conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.

How accurate is the ITSP to DAE conversion?

We aim to create the most accurate conversions with our tools. Our tools are under constant development with new features and improvements being added every week.

Is it safe to convert my ITSP to DAE on ImageToStl.com?

Yes, of course! We do not store the ITSP file you submit to us. The resulting DAE file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.

Do I need a high-spec. computer to use the ITSP to DAE converter?

No. All our conversion tools process your ITSP file on our dedicated conversion servers, meaning you can use our tools on low-spec computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices and receive your converted DAE file quickly.

Can I convert my ITSP to DAE on Windows, Linux, Android, iOS or Mac OS?

Yes! Our ITSP to DAE tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.

What if I am using an Ad Blocker, will that affect things?

Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our ITSP conversion tool please consider white-listing our site. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits on some of our tools and processing/conversion times will be longer.

Can I get support with converting my ITSP to DAE?

Yes. When you have converted your ITSP to DAE, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
