MeshPad

If you liked MeshLab and you have an iPad or an iPhone, you cannot miss this: an intuitive, cool 3D viewer to show your models. It is able to sustain the interactive browsing of detailed models (usable up to 2M triangles). Perfect for boldly show hi quality 3D scanned stuff to non-technical guys. Soon to be released.

More info can be found both on MeshPad official web page or on the facebook MeshPad page.

The viewer is well integrated in iOs, so it is automatically started whenever you encounter a 3D model in a recognized format (currently just ply stl obj off). It works with models on the web (see the second video) or with other cloud storage services like DropBox.

So for example it is easy to put a bunch of model on your dropbox account, to boldly show off them just when you need on your iPad.

Here are two videos showing MeshPad in action:



Stay tuned for the official release of the app!
