Pivy is a Coin binding for Python. Coin is a high-level 3D graphics library with a C++ Application Programming Interface. Coin uses scene-graph data structures to render real-time graphics suitable for mostly all kinds of scientific and engineering visualization applications.

What does Pivy do?

Pivy allows:

• development of Coin applications and extensions in Python
• interactive modification of Coin programs from within the Python interpreter at runtime
• incorporation of Scripting Nodes into the scene graph which are capable of executing Python code and callbacks

What does this mean for you?

This will allow you to do Rapid Application Prototyping and Development in a language that offers a rich set of useful modules combined with all the convenience and advantages of an interpreted and dynamically typed language.
