The LabVIEW 3D Picture Control Evaluation Software is a set of tools for LabVIEW 7.1 through 8.0.1 that allow the modeling and rendering of basic 3D scenes for advanced visualization in LabVIEW. The VIs included use OpenGL to render the 3D scenes. For LabVIEW versions 8.2 and later, the 3D Picture Control is built into the Graph Palette
