Importing 3D model(obj,stl,step,etc) in Node-red Dashboard

Hi @Jaisantosh,

I'm not sure whether anything is available out-of-the box already.
I only found this:

  • node-red-contrib-web-babylonjs. But like you already mentioned, I'm also not sure whether it allows currently to load a 3d model and show it in the dashboard.
  • node-red-arjs. I see in this link that this augmented reality library (ar.js) can load following 3d models: * glTF 2.0, glTF, OBJ, COLLADA, PLY, JSON, FBX
  • p5.js. I see here that p5.js supports 3d models via OBJ and STL.
  • three.js. I wrote that example for somebody, to show 3D in the flow editor. But I assume you can use similar code in a template node for the dashboard ...

After this quick look, I assume the p5.js example flow is closest to the dashboard solution you are trying to achieve ...
