ObjSequenceViewer V0.5

A minimal, standalone viewer for 3D animations stored as stop-motion sequences of individual .obj mesh files.

Installation:

  • pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Execution:

  • python3 ObjSequenceViewer_v0.5.py

After the program starts, you will be asked to specify the directory that the sequence of .obj meshes resides in (files need to be named in a consecutive manner).

All .obj meshes need to be loaded in RAM before the animation starts, which can be a time consuming process.

Tested on Ubuntu 20.04.

KeyBoard Controls:

  • Rotate left: A button
  • Rotate right: D button
  • Zoom in: W button
  • Zoom out: S button
  • Toggle solid/wireframe view: F button

Output Recording:

TODO:

  • Add sliders for controling animation speed
  • Add texture support
  • Control background color
  • Reduce loading time through parallelization
