ACIS 3D Geometric Modeler (ACIS) is an object-oriented three-dimensional (3D) geometric modeling engine from
Spatial Corp. (Spatial). It is designed for use as the geometry foundation within virtually any end user 3D modeling application. Written in
C++,
ACIS provides an open architecture framework for wireframe, surface, and solid modeling from a common, unified data structure.
