\page blender_sdf_exporter Blender SDF Exporter
Blender is a Digital Content Creation (DCC) tool for working with 3d models. In some cases you may be using it to bake lighting and environment maps.
The Blender SDF exporter is a blender script in which you can run within Blender to export your meshes, their associated textures and lights to a dae file, its corresponding SDF file and config file.
Please note that the SDF format does not have 1 to 1 parity of features with Blender's mesh/materials/lights feature set. As such feel free to customize the script as needed.
