History
In 1985, company founder Roman Ormandy began working on a prototype 3D video animation package for the Amiga Computer, which led to the incorporation of Octree Software in 1986. From 1988 to 1992, Octree released several software packages including Caligari1, Caligari2, Caligari Broadcast, and Caligari 24. Caligari was aimed toward providing industrial video and corporate presentation software. Caligari Broadcast was introduced with the hopes of offering professional 3D animation capabilities at a fraction of the cost of comparable systems. In 1993 Octree Software moved from New York to California and became known as Caligari Corporation. In 1994 trueSpace 1.0 was introduced on the Windows platform. The original Amiga 1000 (1985) with Commodore 1080 monitor The Amiga is a family of home/personal computers originally developed by Amiga Corporation as an advanced home entertainment and productivity machine. ...

Overview All of Caligari's products feature an immersive real-time interface that allows users to intuitively and directly manipulate objects in a fully-rendered 3D space, which helps to enhance and accelerate the design process. trueSpace is a full-featured modeling/animation/rendering package. It operates out-of-box but also features a plug-in architecture that allows the user to create tools to enhance the core package. - trueSpace is currently at release version 7 (also known to its users as tS7). A recent point upgrade has brought it up to version 7.1 and added some new modelling features.
Not only has Caligari enhanced the award-winning modeling, surfacing and rendering capabilities of trueSpace, the latest version trueSpace7 has revolutionized the way 3D content is created, communicated and shared with others allowing all aspects of real-time design, modeling and animation within a virtual 3D space shared by remote participants over the broadband internet. - trueSpace7's easy-to-use authoring tools are seamlessly integrated into the underlying collaborative process.
The trueSpace7 collaboration server enables multiple participants to connect to a shared 3D space to create and manipulate shared content in real-time. - Collaboration

In computer graphics, subdivision surfaces are used to create smooth surfaces out of arbitrary meshes. ...
Animation Rendering and Surfacing Currently tS has two native internal rendering engines and also support for DX9 pixel shader output quality images alongside the traditional style Render engines. Lightworks Lightworks (formerly OLE Limited) was founded at the end of the 1989, by Paul Bamborough, Nick Pollock and Neil Harris. ...
VirtuaLight tS7 also introduces support for the VRay rendering engine developed by the Chaos Group V-ray is 3d graphics rendering software created by Chaos Group. ...

Features One of the most distinctive features of trueSpace is its interface, using mainly 3D widgets for most common editing operations. tS can also be scripted, using Python for creating custom scripts, tools and plugins. tS7 introduces the use of VBScript and JavaScript as scripting tools for developing plugins and interactive scenes. Python is an interpreted programming language created by Guido van Rossum in 1990. ...

JavaScript is the name of Netscape Communications Corporations implementation of the ECMAScript standard, a scripting language based on the concept of prototype-based programming. ...
Its interface aims to make it easy for anyone to create 3D objects and scenes. Capabilities of the software include creating visualizations and animations with realistic lighting (through the use of radiosity) and organic modelling using NURBS, subdivision surfaces and metaballs. Radiosity is a global illumination algorithm used in 3D computer graphics rendering. ...

In computer graphics, subdivision surfaces are used to create smooth surfaces out of arbitrary meshes. ...
Two metaballs Metaballs, in computer graphics terms, are organic-looking n-dimensional objects. ...
The software has two native formats: one for standalone objects (with the file extension .cob), and another for the scenes (with the file extension .scn). Objects in trueSpace can be embedded in Active Worlds. In addition to its native formats, trueSpace can also import and export several additional model types. Active Worlds (AW) is a 3D virtual reality platform. ...
