Welcome to the XCModel Project Web page



XCModel is a system based on NURBS to model free form curves and surfaces, to compose solid objects and to render modelled scenes.

If you're not familiar with surface and solid modeling, you might like to take a look at a brief description of the field.

XCModel environment integrates four interactive graphics systems:

XCModel and its subsystems were designed bearing in mind the following objective:
