Open Source Linux 3D Rendering Software

Over 1,000,000 page views per month. Jmol/JSmol is a molecular viewer for 3D chemical structures that runs in four independent modes: an HTML5-only web application utilizing jQuery, a Java applet, a stand-alone Java program (Jmol.jar), and a "headless" server-side component (JmolData.jar). Jmol can read many file types, including PDB, CIF, SDF, MOL, PyMOL PSE files, and Spartan files, as well as output from Gaussian, GAMESS, MOPAC, VASP, CRYSTAL, CASTEP, QuantumEspresso, VMD, and many other quantum chemistry programs. Files can be transferred directly from several databases, including RCSB, EDS, NCI, PubChem, and MaterialsProject. Multiple files can be loaded and compared. A rich scripting language and a well-developed web API allow easy customization of the user interface. Features include interactive animation and linear morphing. Jmol interfaces well with JSpecView for spectroscopy, JSME for 2D->3D conversion, POV-Ray for images, and CAD programs for 3D printing (VRML export).

QuteMol is a real time, high quality molecular visualizer that offers an array of innovative visual effects. QuteMol aims at improving the clarity of rendered images and at offering a better understanding of the molecular 3D shape and spatial structure.

The Chemistry Development Kit (CDK) is a scientific, LGPL-ed library for bio- and cheminformatics and computational chemistry written in Java. The main home page of the CDK is now at: http://cdk.github.io

Animp is an OpenGL program to display movies of particles in motion where the movies are produced by adding calls to animp library routines to simulation code written in either C++ or Fortran. Animp can also display molecules read from PDB files.

QMGA is a Qt-based molecular graphics application for visualizing large ensembles of ellipsoids, spherocylinders or spheres. It is conceived for coarse-grained mesoscopic molecular simulation, but can be used for any kind of convex body systems.

Free and portable software for visualization and post-processing of results from Quantum Chemistry calculations. Oriented, but not limited, to satisfy the visualization needs from Lowdin [http://www.cucei.udg.mx/~robertof] and deMon2k.
