HOOPS/3dGS is a commercial-grade graphics system providing the algorithms
and data-structures necessary to incorporate 2D and 3D, vector and raster graphics
into interactive CAD/CAM/CAE, Scientific Visualization, GIS, and many other
types of engineering applications. It consists of a sub-routine library providing
creation, storage, querying, manipulation, rendering, and hardcopy capabilities
for an application's graphical information, and is linked with an application's
object code. The libraries can either be dynamically or statically linked.
HOOPS/3dGS is not an application, but rather a toolkit providing
a wide range of 2D and 3D interactive graphics capabilities. A large suite of
supporting demonstration and integration code accompanies the libraries to assist
the developer in learning about HOOPS and its capabilities.
