Open Inventor is many things: 1) An add-on library to OpenGL. 2) Defines a standard data format (the .iv format) for 3D data interchange. 3) A scene graph API. 4) A windowing system, and platform, independent 3D graphics library, like OpenGL. 5) Successor to IRIS Inventor and predecessor to VRML.

Systems in Motion: Coin
-
Coin is an OpenGL based, retained mode 3D graphics rendering library. It is implemented in C++ and publicly released with the source code open for your perusal. The application programmer's interface (API) is based on (and will eventually be fully compatible with) the API of Open Inventor, the de facto standard 3D graphics library.
