Exhibit is software which lets you preview your 3D models.
Based on the F3D library, it supports many file formats, from digital content to scientific datasets including glTF, STL, STEP, PLY, OBJ, FBX, USD, Alembic and many others. You can drag and drop 3d models into the app and export an image of the rendered model. Change many settings like tone mapping, ambient occlusion, anti aliasing, material roughness, metallic, color and opacity to achieve the perfect render. You can use an HDRI image or a custom color as a background.
This is free and open source software.
