Render 3d .obj file to .png image

Question

Is there at least some way to get a picture of a .obj model without displaying the model ? I have a lot of .obj models and I need to convert them to .png images. I need only image without display anything

You don't really need libgdx for obj rendering. This can be done by either opengl, or some custom render libs.

Consider using this library written in c++ for obj rendering. Here's its description in russian

Do you need to do this in libgdx? I think you can also call blender via command line, let it render the scene and output to an image. Make a short bash script to do this for all .obj files in your folder.

If you do need to use libgdx, I think a good approach is to render to a framebuffer, then write its contents to a file.
