GeoXL 3.5.1
About GeoXL 3.5
The GeoXL software framework is the open source version of our research platform. The latest available version is version 3.5.1 (last update: Sept 04 2015).
- Source Code Download
- Precompiled Binaries (Windows 64bit; stand-alone — just unzip and run application/x64/release/GeoXL35.exe)
Remarks & Documentation
- Prerequisites: Currently GeoXL requires Windows (although the code is 99% portable, the Linux version is not ready yet). For building from sources, Visual Studio 2010 and QT 4.x.x are required.
- Building from sources: For building the 32bit version, the environment variable "%QTDIR%" must be set such that it points to a directory with include,lib,bin subdirectories. For a 64bit build, the environment variable "%QTDIR64%" must be define to point to the corresponding 64bit QT installation. No further preparations are required.
- Animation Reconstruction (2009): The module "x3deformation" provides the full source code used for the results in the paper "Efficient Reconstruction of Non-rigid Shape and Motion from Real-Time 3D Scanner Data".
- Three Parameter Matching (2014): The module "x3projects/threeParameterMatchingGMOD14" provides the full source code used for the results in the follow-up paper "A Low-Dimensional Representation for Robust Partial Isometric Correspondences Computation.".
- Dokumentation: Instructions for using the code (courtesy of Alan Brunton) are provided here for download.
- Credits: The three-paramter-matching module has been implemented by Alan Brunton (main developer and first author), Aurela Shehu, Stefanie Wuhrer, Tino Weinkauf and myself (Michael Wand).
- This module is open source in terms of the GNU public license (GPL) V2. See documentation for details.
- Brief Introduction: There is a short tutorial available from the dynamic geometry processing lecture. It only discussions a subsection of the functionality, though. Otherwise, please refer to the XGRT documentation below (the differences to the previous version are generally small; most importantly, the visual studio projects have been cleaned up using property sheets, and the name spaces has changed to geoxl).
Disclaimer
Our code is licensed under various open source licenses (please also be aware of varying licenses for third-party modules). Details are provided along with each module (each GeoXL 3.5 module comes with a "tags.h" file that specifies copyright, developers, and license terms; the cores system uses a permissive BSD license, and individual modules might opt for different terms, most commonly GPLs. For third party software (folder "third party"), refer to the respective original code repositories and the license information provided within the subdirectories.)

GeoX is a small subset of GeoXL targeted towards class room use and small-scale homework projects.
We also provide the previous version 3.0 of the GeoXL system for reference / compatibility reasons (last update: Feb 28 2013). The follow-up version (3.5), as provided above, has made significant changes to the system architecture, including a new module system and a new file format, which is not backwards compatible to earlier versions. For new development, we recommend using the latest version.
