<p><b>SpeedTree</b>, eigentlich <i>SpeedTreeRT</i>, ist eine Entwicklungsumgebung von Interactive Data Visualization, Inc. (IDV) für Spieleentwickler und 3D-Designer, mit der sich animierte 3D-Bäume in Spielen und Multimedia-Software einbinden lassen.
</p><p>SpeedTree ist eine so genannte <a href="Middleware" title="Middleware">Middleware</a>, die neben der Erstellung von Baummodellen in einem eigenen <a href="Computer-aided_design" class="mw-redirect" title="Computer-aided design">CAD</a>-System (SpeedTreeCAD) auch die Einbeziehung von Windeffekten und ein automatisches und stufenloses <a href="Level_of_Detail" title="Level of Detail">Level of Detail</a> (LOD) bei der Modell-Erstellung beherrscht. Die Auswirkungen von dynamischem Lichteinfall auf die Darstellung eines Baumes, bzw. ganzer Wälder, kann mit Hilfe von <a href="Vertex" title="Vertex">Vertex</a>-Farben ebenso dargestellt werden, wie die Baumschatten.
</p><p>Die SpeedTree Engine kann von Software- und Spieleentwicklern <a href="Lizenz" title="Lizenz">lizenziert</a> und in eigene Produkte eingebunden werden.
</p><p>IDV wurde im Juli 2021 von <a href="Unity_Technologies" title="Unity Technologies">Unity Technologies</a> akquiriert.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
