View 3D X3D Files Online

Use this free tool to view your 3D X3D (Extensible 3D Graphics) files online without needing to install any software. Our X3D viewer tool will generate a real-time 3D preview of your X3D file with Pan and Zoom controls, allowing you to see your 3D model from any angle.

Our X3D viewing tool can load most X3D files, and we are working on improvements all the time to improve compatibility with all file formats. If you are looking to convert your 2D image files to 3D files, such as STL, then we have a 2D to 3D conversion tool here.

Description

The X3D file format was introduced in 2002 as a successor to the 3D VRML (WRL) file format. X3D files contain 3D mesh and model information defined using vertices, faces, normals, and material data, making them broadly as capable as the older VRML format.

X3D files are structured XML text-based files that allow full 3D scenes to contain models comprised of 3D mesh data and other simple shapes. There are browser extensions that allow X3D files to be directly embedded within HTML to allow rendering directly to a web page; however, the format has not seen widespread adoption.
