COLLADA

ABSTRACT

COLLADA is a digital asset exchange schema that helps developers be more productive. It enables 3D authoring tools to work together to raise the power of the tool chains. It also defines a packaging format for content delivery, including shaders, animation, and physics. COLLADA enables leading 3D authoring tools to work effectively together to create OpenGL ES applications and assets. This presentation describes COLLADA: what it is, how it works, and who is supporting it.
