There MUST be an FTP site with raw 3d description files for various objects. I'm working on computer stereo vision and want to render stereo views of various objects and compare the predicted/computed visual depth to the "actual" depth. I would especially be interested in a head or body object. I don't care what format the data is in- I'm willing to write a conversion program. As a bonus, I'd love to have the objects for my raytracer- :-) If you have interesting objects, PLEASE e-mail me. The greater the variety of objects, the better! Best case would be ftp sites with compressed ascii tables of points,edges,and faces, of Amiga SA4D, TurboSilver, or Videoscape format, because I can convert any of these fairly easily. (I use Imagine, from Impulse for my raytracing.) Thanks for any help! I appreciate it. spworley@athena.mit.edu

There is at least one for nff format. It's irisa.irisa.fr (131.254.2.3) directory NFF. I try to collect 3d scenes from different sources and convert them to nff. Now there is about 30 nff files in this directory ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | Thierry LECONTE | , ,--- ,--- | | INRIA/IRISA | / / /--- | | Campus de Beaulieu | (___ (___ (___ | | 35042 RENNES CEDEX | | | FRANCE | (INRIA/BULL) | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | Tel: 99 36 20 00 e-mail: Thierry.Leconte@irisa.fr | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NFF does not list connectivity of polygonal patches. thanks ajb@ee.wpi.edu (arthur j. butler)
