IGES Toolbox

05 Dec 2006 (Updated 14 Aug 2009)

Converts parameter data in IGES file into a Matlab object.

File Information
Description	Toolbox for working with IGES CAD objects in Matlab. The Matlab function ‘iges2matlab’ converts parameter data in IGES file into a Matlab object. Other functions in the toolbox do plots, transformations, projections and so on of the CAD object. Non Windows user must first compile the source code. This is done in Matlab by running: mex bspeval.c
Acknowledgements	The author wishes to acknowledge the following in the creation of this submission: Nurbs2IGES
MATLAB release	MATLAB 7.8 (R2009a)
Other requirements	Some C compiler must be installed for non Windows users. The NURBS toolbox is a good complement for IGES2MATLAB toolbox.

06 Dec 2006	Paolo Bertolo	Fantastic job! I've just opened a CATIA CAD file, converted into IGES using Hypermesh and then loaded it into Matlab. That's great!
06 Dec 2006	Petr Volegov	Need bspeval.dll for Windows x64. Could you please submit the source files too?
16 Jan 2007	bruce bi	This is what I need. Thank You!
