OBJ

Geometry Definition File Format

The OBJ file format is a simple, text-based format used for representing 3D geometry, widely adopted for its compatibility and ease of use. It is supported by numerous 3D modeling tools like Blender, Maya, and 3ds Max, as well as game engines and rendering software. The format defines vertices, faces, texture coordinates, and normals, with optional features like material definitions (via MTL files), grouping, and smoothing for advanced rendering.

PLY

Polygon File Format

The PLY is a flexible file format designed to store 3D geometric data, commonly used for representing polygonal models. It is supported by various 3D modeling tools, such as Blender, MeshLab, and 3D printing software, due to its simplicity and versatility. The format supports both ASCII and binary encodings, allowing for efficient storage, and includes features like custom properties, vertex colors, and texture coordinates, making it adaptable for advanced 3D applications.
