VTK中导入并显示STL、3DS文件

　　VTK（visualization toolkit）是一个开源的免费软件系统，主要用于三维计算机图形学、图像处理和科学计算可视化。VTK是在三维函数库OpenGL 的基础上采用面向对象的设计方法发展起来的，它将我们在可视化开发过程中会经常遇到的细节屏蔽起来，并将一些常用的算法封装起来。它包含一个C++类库，和解释封装层，包括Tcl/Tk、Java、Python等。采用这种架构的优势是我们能使用C++语言建立高效的算法，用其他的脚本语言（如TCL、Python）可以进行快速的开发。

　　VTK中可以导入/导出或读/写多种三维格式的文件，可以参考What 3D file formats can VTK import and export? The following table identifies the file formats that VTK can read and write. Importer and Exporter classes move full scene information into or out of VTK. Reader and Writer classes move just geometry.

File Format	Read	Write

AVS "UCD" format	vtkAVSucdReader
Movie BYU	vtkBYUReader	vtkBYUWriter
Renderman		vtkRIBExporter
Open Inventor 2.0		vtkIVExporter/vtkIVWriter
CAD STL	vtkSTLReader	vtkSTLWriter
Fluent GAMBIT ASCII	vtkGAMBITReader
Unigraphics Facet Files	vtkUGFacetReader
Marching Cubes	vtkMCubesReader	vtkMCubesWriter
Wavefront OBJ		vtkOBJExporter

　　STL格式是一种3D模型文件格式，它采用三角形离散地近似表示三维模型，目前已被工业界认为是快速成形领域的标准描述文件格式。这种文件不包括模型的材质等信息。下面的代码将读入一个STL文件将其显示在窗口中，并可以用鼠标和键盘进行一些简单的交互。

#!/usr/bin/env python

import vtk

filename = "myfile.stl"

reader = vtk.vtkSTLReader()

reader.SetFileName(filename)

mapper = vtk.vtkPolyDataMapper()

mapper.SetInputConnection(reader.GetOutputPort())

actor = vtk.vtkActor()

actor.SetMapper(mapper)

# Create a rendering window and renderer

ren = vtk.vtkRenderer()

renWin = vtk.vtkRenderWindow()

renWin.AddRenderer(ren)

# Create a renderwindowinteractor

iren = vtk.vtkRenderWindowInteractor()

iren.SetRenderWindow(renWin)

# Assign actor to the renderer

ren.AddActor(actor)

# Enable user interface interactor

iren.Initialize()

renWin.Render()

iren.Start()

C++版代码如下：

#include <vtkPolyData.h>

#include <vtkSTLReader.h>

#include <vtkSmartPointer.h>

#include <vtkPolyDataMapper.h>

#include <vtkActor.h>

#include <vtkRenderWindow.h>

#include <vtkRenderer.h>

#include <vtkRenderWindowInteractor.h>

int main ( int argc, char *argv[] )

{

    if ( argc !=  )

    {

        cout << "Required parameters: Filename" << endl;

        return EXIT_FAILURE;

    }

    std::string inputFilename = argv[];

    vtkSmartPointer<vtkSTLReader> reader =

        vtkSmartPointer<vtkSTLReader>::New();

    reader->SetFileName(inputFilename.c_str());

    reader->Update();

    // Visualize

    vtkSmartPointer<vtkPolyDataMapper> mapper =

        vtkSmartPointer<vtkPolyDataMapper>::New();

    mapper->SetInputConnection(reader->GetOutputPort());

    vtkSmartPointer<vtkActor> actor =

        vtkSmartPointer<vtkActor>::New();

    actor->SetMapper(mapper);

    vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderer> renderer =

        vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderer>::New();

    vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderWindow> renderWindow =

        vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderWindow>::New();

    renderWindow->AddRenderer(renderer);

    vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderWindowInteractor> renderWindowInteractor =

        vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderWindowInteractor>::New();

    renderWindowInteractor->SetRenderWindow(renderWindow);

    renderer->AddActor(actor);

    renderer->SetBackground(., ., .); // Background color green

    renderWindow->Render();

    renderWindowInteractor->Start();

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;

}

　　3ds文件是是Autodesk 3dsMax使用的一种二进制存储格式，VTK中可以使用vtk3DSImporter类导入3ds文件。

　　vtkImporter is an abstract class that specifies the protocol for importing actors, cameras, lights and properties into a vtkRenderWindow. The following takes place: 1) Create a RenderWindow and Renderer if none is provided. 2) Call ImportBegin, if ImportBegin returns False, return 3) Call ReadData, which calls: a) Import the Actors b) Import the cameras c) Import the lights d) Import the Properties 7) Call ImportEnd

　　Subclasses optionally implement the ImportActors, ImportCameras, ImportLights and ImportProperties or ReadData methods. An ImportBegin and ImportEnd can optionally be provided to perform Importer-specific initialization and termination. The Read method initiates the import process. If a RenderWindow is provided, its Renderer will contained the imported objects. If the RenderWindow has no Renderer, one is created. If no RenderWindow is provided, both a RenderWindow and Renderer will be created. Both the RenderWindow and Renderer can be accessed using Get methods.

#!/usr/bin/env python

# This example demonstrates the use of vtk3DSImporter.

# vtk3DSImporter is used to load 3D Studio files.  Unlike writers,

# importers can load scenes (data as well as lights, cameras, actors

# etc.). Importers will either generate an instance of vtkRenderWindow

# and/or vtkRenderer or will use the ones you specify.

import vtk

# Create the importer and read a file

importer = vtk.vtk3DSImporter()

importer.ComputeNormalsOn()

importer.SetFileName("myfile.3ds")

importer.Read()

# Here we let the importer create a renderer and a render window for

# us. We could have also create and assigned those ourselves like so:

# renWin = vtk.vtkRenderWindow()

# importer.SetRenderWindow(renWin)

# Assign an interactor.

# We have to ask the importer for it's render window.

renWin = importer.GetRenderWindow()

iren = vtk.vtkRenderWindowInteractor()

iren.SetRenderWindow(renWin)

# Set the render window's size

renWin.SetSize(500, 500)

# Set some properties on the renderer.

# We have to ask the importer for it's renderer.

ren = importer.GetRenderer()

ren.SetBackground(0.1, 0.2, 0.4)

iren.Initialize()

renWin.Render()

iren.Start()
