Convert DRC to GLB via Python
Render DRC as GLB without any 3D modeling and rendering software.
Aspose.3D for Python via .NET
Overview
How to Convert DRC to GLB Using Python
In order to convert DRC to GLB, we’ll use
API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use document manipulation and conversion API for Python. Open
package manager, search for Aspose.3D and install. You may also use the following command from the Package Manager Console.
Command line
pip install aspose-3d
Steps to Convert DRC to GLB via Python
Python programmers can easily load & convert DRC files to GLB in just a few lines of code.
- Load DRC file via the from_file of Scene class
- Call the Scene.save method with GLB’s format.
- Check resultant GLB file at specified path
System Requirements
Before running the Python conversion code, make sure that you have the following prerequisites.
- Microsoft Windows or Linux based OS.
- Python 3.5 or later.
- Aspose.3D for Python referenced in your project.
DRC What is DRC File Format?
A file with .drc extension is a compressed 3D file format created with Google Draco library. Google offers Draco as open source library for compressing and decompressing 3D geometric meshes and point clouds, and improves storage and transmission of 3D graphics. It encodes the input data and saves it as .drc file. At the receiving end, the API reads .drc files and can output these as PLY or OBJ files. The compressed output file enables users to download apps faster and provide quick loading of 3D graphics in browsers.

GLB is the binary file format representation of 3D models saved in the GL Transmission Format (glTF). Information about 3D models such as node hierarchy, cameras, materials, animations and meshes in binary format. This binary format stores the glTF asset (JSON, .bin and images) in a binary blob. It also avoids the issue of increase in file size which happens in case of glTF. GLB file format results in compact file sizes, fast loading, complete 3D scene representation, and extensibility for further development. The format uses model/gltf-binary as MIME type.
