Khronos Releases glTF 2.1 To Make This 3D Asset Standard Work Well For Large Scenes
It's crazy realizing that glTF 2.0 is already nine years old for this API-neutral 3D runtime and asset delivery format. The Khronos 3D Formats Working Group today extended that with the debut of glTF 2.1 as a backward-compatible revision to the specification...
The glTF standard continues to evolve to meet the increasing demands of complex 3D environments, nine years after its last major revision.
A more robust 3D asset standard facilitating large scenes is critical for advancing synthetic environments, whether for AI training, metaverse applications, or advanced visualization.
The ability to efficiently handle larger and more complex 3D scenes within a standardized format will improve interoperability and performance across various 3D applications.
