	COLLADA - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		COLLADA is a COLLAborative Design Activity for establishing an interchange file format for interactive 3D applications.
		COLLADA version 1.4, released in January 2006, supports features such as character skinning and morph targets, rigid body dynamics and shader effects for multiple shading languages including the Cg programming language, GLSL and HLSL.
		The COLLADA DOM is generated at compile-time from the COLLADA schema.

		Employer asserts that Collada, in fact, emphasized and specifically identified the timing of the symptoms as the controlling factor in causing him to conclude that the work injury was the major contributing cause.
		Collada concluded that the work injury was the major contributing cause of the condition.
		In view of that, as well as the fact that the record shows that Collada was aware of and discussed the other potential causes, we hold that the board could reasonably conclude that Collada's opinion regarding causation was not based solely on the temporal relationship between the on-the-job lifting incident and the L4-5 disc herniation.

	COLLADA - Digital Asset Exchange Schema for Interactive 3D
		COLLADA ("COLLAborative Design Activity") is an open standard for the interactive entertainment industry that defines an XML-based schema for 3D authoring applications to freely exchange digital assets without loss of information.
		COLLADA supports all the features that modern 3D interactive authoring applications need to exchange and fully preserve asset data and its feature set is expanding to incorporate technologies such as packaging programmable shader effects and controlling real-time physics engines.
		The COLLADA DOM released as open source, is a comprehensive framework for the development of COLLADA applications and provides a C++ programming interface to load, query, and translate COLLADA instance data.

	CGTalk - Collada for LightWave
		Text formats such as OBJ and LWS are linear and does not display the logical hierarchy of the 3D content, but Collada is almost like a merger of those two formats but with all their information hierarchically structured, as well as containing information such as weighting.
		One thing about the Collada format though, is that it is focused on being used for interactive/realtime 3d.
		Collada should be a standard part of the LW 9 import/export options.

	COLLADA 1.0 specs are out - Beyond3D Forum (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		COLLADA is a COLLAborative Design Activity lead by SCE US Randamp;D that involves designers, developers and interested parties from within Sony Computer Entertainment as well as other companies such as Alias Systems Corporation, Criterion Software, Autodesk Inc, and Avid Technology.
		Collada specs are far from being complete..dunno why they called it 1.0 specs sheet..
		What collada potentially provides, is exporters that are maintained by the tool vendors instead of by developers.

	COLLADA - Sony Computer Entertainment - 3d-test Panorama of web 3d technologies - Real Time 3D & Interactive media
		COLLADA is an XML schema and a common profile defining a list of features that every COLLADA partner has agreed to support.
		The goal of COLLADA is to create a working group enabling collaboration between all the partners in order to standardize on the representation of all the features required by interactive applications.
		For instance, in COLLADA 2.0 we want to support all shading languages in the COMMON profile (Cg, GLSL, HLSL), but for 1.0, we have introduced Cg support as an extension; the Cg profile, which is supported at the moment only by Softimage and Equinox3D.

		Por ejemplo supongamos que Collada truinfa y es un sistema mucho mejor que XNA para desarrollar para consolas y PC (en teoria lo es, OpenGL es un tanto mejor que DirectX, lo mismo que Renderware es mejor que Middleware).
		pero el problema de Collada es que esta metida EA y esos si logran un estandar a su favor te meten mas 200 juegos de baja calidad (especialmente deportivos y medal of honors) bien publicitados que son exitos de ventas.
		Los estandares de Collada son realmente buenos (OpenGL y Renderware se consideran un poco mejores que DirectX y Middleware en general) pero EA esta metida con Criterion que es la dueña del Renderware y lo usa para casi todos sus juegos.

	Ogre Forums :: View topic - The Ogre COLLADA plugin
		I had looked at COLLADA about a year ago but there was no agreement on how the physics format should be handled and there was very little talk at the time about GPU shader support.
		Since Collada is a resource format content creation, it may not translate well directly to the game's needs, and often these needs can't be twisted to fit.
		At some point it seems that Collada should be left for content creation only, and when it's time to put it into the game it gets rolled up along with all the other info and game object needs into your own format.

	PixelBox Academy to Deliver COLLADA Training - GameDev.Net Discussion Forums
		“COLLADA is already a proven open standard and with the high-quality of available COLLADA translators and the upcoming FX Composer 2.0 tool from NVIDIA we decided it was time to fill an emerging industry need and become the pioneers in COLLADA training,” said Bruno Patatas, founder and CEO of PixelBox Academy.
		COLLADA include support for programmable shaders authored and packaged using the OpenGL, OpenGL® ES and Direct3D shading languages so that leading authoring tools can work effectively together to create advanced 3D applications and assets.
		All Khronos members are able to contribute to the development of Khronos API specifications, are empowered to vote at various stages before public deployment, and are able to accelerate the delivery of their cutting-edge media platforms and applications through early access to specification drafts and conformance tests.

		Whilst Collada seems great for asset exchange, when it comes to conversion to a purpose-optimised format like OGRE there are inevitably some engine-specific things to bear in mind, things like LOD levels, submesh aggregation options and the like.
		COLLADA acceptance is definately increasing since the last time I looked at the forum.
		COLLADA FX is a subset of COLLADA which supports interchange of complex, multi-pass shader effects and allows encoding shaders for multiple platforms in one format ie Cg, GLSL, HLSL.

	Sony open-source collaboration provides first look at a post-PSP world \| TG Daily (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Collada automatically scales the 3D graphics data necessary to compile a game for a high-performance platform such as PS3, to a lower performance and resolution more suitable for a handheld device or a PDA.
		This way, the core logic, the parts of the code that should be concerned with how characters move, interact, and behave, don't need to be concerned with how their data is rendered on a console.
		So in a very ironic but necessary way, Collada's key purpose, in the wake of its pact with Khronos, will be to lower the complexity and even the performance of some game content.
