Open WRL File

The WRL extension is used as a virtual reality modeling project.

In fact, there is VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language), which generates a project with the WRL extension as the standard format for interactive 3D vector graphics designed mainly for WWW applications.

Basically, the WRL file extension is short for WORLD, generated by VRML.

VRML is a text-based language (ASCII) that aims to represent scenes or three-dimensional interactive objects designed particularly for the web.

VRML has been superseded by X3D, a more advanced ISO standards-based format that addresses the same tasks.

The WRL file contains coordinates and colors that define each object and shape, and also includes the viewpoint coordinates for the initial view of the 3D scene.

WRL files are saved in an ASCII text format, which can be edited with a text editor.
