Brabosphere / News: Recent posts

I'm proud to present the first public release of Brabosphere, an application for the 3D visualisation of molecular systems and their properties. It also acts as a graphical frontend for the quantum mechanical program package BRABO.

Some of the most important features:
* Multiplatform: Brabosphere and CrdView run on Windows, Linux, Unix and MacOS. Additionally they are presented using the native interface on each platform (See the screenshots for examples).
* The use of OpenGL accelerated graphics allows high speed rendering of the molecules using features like shading, highlights and transparency.
* Inclusion of the OpenBabel library allows Brabosphere and CrdView to load and save in a multitude of coordinate file formats.
* Molecules can be built from scratch using absolute or relative cartesian and internal coordinates.
* Electron densities can be visualised in 2D and 3D. The 2D mode allows a detailed analysis of the resulting density map.
