Overview
The OpenSceneGraph is an open-source, high-performance 3D graphics toolkit, used by application developers in fields such as visual simulation, games, virtual reality, scientific visualization, and modelling. Written entirely in Standard C++ and OpenGL, it runs on all Windows platforms, OSX, GNU/Linux, IRIX, Solaris, HP-Ux, AIX, and FreeBSD operating systems.
Among a whole list of other formats, OSG also supports reading and writing of 1.4.1 COLLADA files. The plug-in currently supports the visual scene node hierarchy, geometry, basic materials and uses OpenSceneGraph OSG plugin extensions to store specific OSG node info. The current plug-in is based on COLLADA DOM 2.2 using the 1.4 libraries.
