5 use cases for the glTF file format

• The glTF (GL Transmission Format) file format is commonly used for 3D model data in applications such as augmented and virtual reality.
• It can be used to share 3D models between different 3D modeling software programs and engines.
• It can be used for 3D printing, allowing users to print high-quality 3D models directly from glTF files.
• It can be used for real-time rendering of 3D graphics in applications such as video games and online 3D visualization tools.
• It can be used for 3D visualization and analysis in fields such as architecture, engineering, and construction.
