Graphics::VTK - A Perl interface to Visualization ToolKit

SYNOPSIS

Top

use Graphics::VTK;

DESCRIPTION

Top

PerlVTK is an interface to the C++ visualization toolkit VTK 3.20.

It is designed to work similarly to the TCL bindings that come with the stock VTK package.

For installation instructions, see the README file. You must have VTK installed before installing PerlVTK. The homepage for VTK is http://www.kitware.com/.

To see how to use the module, check out the examples in the examples directory.

All vtk objects in Perl must be created through the function new. For example:

  $renderer = Graphics::VTK::vtkRenderer->new;

To know exactly which functions are supported by this module, check the perldocs in Graphics::VTK::Common, Graphics::VTK::Contrib, Graphics::VTK::Graphics, Graphics::VTK::Imaging.

Have fun!
