STL Files Reading,Displaying and Manipulating

Abstract

By using OpenGL on the platform of VC++,fast reading and visualization of STL files can be achieved.Along with it the realization of the translation and rotation of an STL model also makes possible the model slicing.As a result,the off-line programming system for a glazing robot can generate the correct track of a spray gun working on the model of a clay piece and subsequently verify its visual effectiveness through practical applications.
