Commercial Applications
The C3Dserver is widely used and trusted for commercial C3D application development. First released in July 2001, it has become the easiest way to develop "bullet-proof" C3D applications quickly and reliably, that work with all standard C3D formatted files, in the Microsoft programming environment. Programming with the C3Dserver offers the following advantages:
- Free distribution and use of the demonstration version of the C3Dserver makes it ideal for educational use.
- No-hassle integration and distribution of the C3Dserver into third party products.
- Easy to use with MATlab, LabView, .NET as well as any language that supports an external .DLL
- Coding with the C3Dserver is a simple as writing - Open C3D file, <insert your own code>, Close C3D file.
- The demonstration version is fully functional.
- Fully documented with PDF manual and on-line help.
- Full support for the registered version.
- Just include the C3Dserver DLL when your application installs.
We encourage anyone distributing the C3Dserver with their software to display the C3Dserver version number and registration status in their applications "About" box.
A Commercial Demonstration
It's easy to write and distribute commercial C3D software using the C3Dserver - to demonstrate this we've developed a small C3D utility. Ghost Remove is a commercial C3D application that opens any C3D file and allows the user to remove unwanted ghost 3D markers (markers without labels or marker labels with non-exist ant trajectories) as well as unused analog channels. Ghost Remove is distributed as a trial (or demonstration) application that can be registered independently of the C3Dserver registration status.
The basic Ghost Remove code was written in one day using .NET 3.5 and the C3Dserver. Ghost Remove is installed with an example C3D file that shrinks from 4.7MB to under 470kB when all of the unused 3D markers and analog channels are removed. A batch mode, and an additional "check box" to compress the parameter block for additional savings, are available when the Ghost Remove is registered. Registration for the application is independant of the C3Dserver registration.
