OBJ Import for Rhino is a plug-in for Rhino. This plug-in gives Rhino the ability to import graphical data from ASCII Alias|Wavefront OBJ files.

Alias|Wavefront is the world's leading innovator of 2D/3D Grafiken technology for the film, video, Spiele, interactive media, industrial design, automotive industry and visualization markets. Their .OBJ ASCII file format is widely accepted the world over for exchanging graphical data between drafting applications.

OBJ files contain solids which are made up of 3 or 4 sided faces. OBJ Import for Rhino converts these faces into a single Rhino Polygon Mesh entity and adds it to the contents of a new Rhino drawing.

OBJ Import for Rhino is very easy to use as it adds a new file type to the Rhino File Open dialog box. To import an OBJ file select Open from the File menu. Select "Wavefront Files (*.obj)" from the "File of type" combo box and select an OBJ file to import. A new drawing will be created containing the imported OBJ file.
