CAD data formats LabVIEW supports

What kind of 3D CAD data file formats LabVIEW supports? Does it support .drg?

Can we import the sonar sensor into 3D data and do the simulation in LabVIEW?

LabVIEW currently supports ASE, STL, and VRML.  Most CAD programs will export one of these, but I was unable to verify that AllyCAD can.  If you can generate your data in one of these formats, LabVIEW can import it.  LabVIEW's simulation capabilities are mostly limited by the programmer's ability.

Thanks a lot. I have CAD data in .drg format. I will see if I can convert it into something that LabVIEW supports.
