ViZiR 4

ViZiR 4 is a light, simple and interactive high-order meshes and solutions visualization software using OpenGL 4 graphic pipeline.

About ViZiR 4

ViZiR 4 is an interactive meshes and solutions visualization tool developed by the GAMMA team at Inria.

Its main features are:
  • Light, simple and interactive visualization software.
  • Surface and volume (tetrahedra, pyramids, prisms, hexahedra) meshes.
  • Pixel exact rendering of high-order solutions on straight elements.
  • Almost pixel exact rendering on curved elements (high-order meshes).
  • Post-processing tools, such as picking, isolines, clipping, capping.
