Sharing of three dimensional objects

摘要

A method and apparatus comprising a design tool to enable the design of a three dimensional object including a plurality of faces and a plurality of vertices. The apparatus further comprising a skinner to generate a two dimensional image file including the plurality of faces from the three dimensional object, and a communications tool to send the two dimensional image file and associated structure data to a recipient using a messaging protocol. The apparatus further comprising a builder to utilize a received two dimensional image file and associated structure data to generate a received three dimensional object.
