GroIMP (Growth Grammar-related Interactive Modelling Platform) is a 3D-modelling platform. As such, GroIMP contains features known from modelling software:
- Interactive editing of scenes
- Rich set of 3D objects, including primitives, NURBS curves and surfaces, height fields
- Material options like colours, textures
- Real-time rendering using OpenGL
- Export to POV-Ray, a free ray-tracer
- Export to DXF, partial export to VRML/X3D
- The built-in raytracer Twilight renders the scene
- A light-model based on the built-in raytracer computes the distribution of light within a scene
GroIMP distinguishes itself from other modelling software by the modelling potential of growth grammars. This potential is made accessible by the integration of the modelling language XL.
