import com.aspose.threed.Scene;
import com.aspose.threed.Sphere;


import java.io.IOException;

Step 1: Initialize Scene

To begin, initialize a 3D scene using Aspose.3D. This is the canvas where your 3D objects will come to life. Use the following code snippet:

// ExStart:1
// Initialize Scene
Scene scene = new Scene(new Sphere());
// ExEnd:1

Step 2: Initialize ObjSaveOptions

Now, initialize the ObjSaveOptions class, which provides settings for saving 3D scenes in the OBJ format:

// Initialize  ObjSaveOptions
ObjSaveOptions opt = new ObjSaveOptions();

Step 3: Set Point Cloud

Enable the point cloud export feature by setting the setPointCloud option to true:

// To export 3D scene as point cloud setPointCloud
opt.setPointCloud(true);

Step 4: Save the Scene

Save the 3D scene as a point cloud in the desired directory:

// Save
scene.save("Your Document Directory" + "export3DSceneAsPointCloud.obj", opt);

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully exported a 3D scene as a point cloud using Aspose.3D for Java. This tutorial has provided a glimpse into the seamless integration and powerful capabilities that Aspose.3D offers to Java developers.
