Convert Your 3D Mesh/Model OBJ Files to WRL

Our free and fast tool will convert most 3D mesh or OBJ (Wavefront) model files to a standard WRL (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) 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 OBJ files, up to 25 files at a time can be converted.

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

How to Convert your OBJ to WRL Online?

Here are 2 simple steps to convert your OBJ to WRL.

Upload a OBJ

Click the "Upload a OBJ File" button and select a OBJ to upload. The maximum file size is 100MB.

Click the download link once completed to receive your WRL file.

FAQ

How can I convert my OBJ file to WRL?

First click the "Upload..." button, select your OBJ file to upload. Select any configuration options. When the OBJ to WRL conversion has completed, you can download your WRL file straight away.

How long does it take to convert my OBJ to WRL?

We aim to process all OBJ to WRL 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 OBJ to WRL 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 OBJ to WRL on ImageToStl.com?

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

Can I convert OBJ to WRL on Windows, Linux, Android, iOS or Mac OS?

Yes! Our OBJ to WRL 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 OBJ 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.

File format information for OBJ to WRL

ExtensionOBJ
Full NameWavefront
Type3D Model
Mime Typetext/plain
FormatText
Open WithMeshLab, CAD Assistant, DAZ Studio

Description

The OBJ file format originally created by Wavefront Technologies and later adopted by many other 3D software vendors is a simple text-based file format for describing 3D model/geometry. This data can include Vertices, Faces, Normals, Texture Coordinates and references to external Texture files.

As the format is text-based it is relatively straight-forward to parse by 3D modelling applications. A downside of the text-based format is the files can be rather large compared to similar binary formats such as STL and compressed files such as 3MF.

OBJ Notes

Currently our tool does not support importing materials or color information from your OBJ file.

Supported Features

  • Mesh geometry

Description

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

WRL Notes

WRL files support material and color information. If your uploaded model contains color information our tool will attempt to save this in the WRL file at the end of the conversion process. Texture information is not supported at this time.

Supported Features

  • Mesh geometry
  • Mesh material colors
  • Vertex colors

Unsupported Features

  • Textures
