How can I render 3D visualizations using C++ and Qt?

You can use the Qt 3D module, which provides a framework for rendering 3D graphics. Have you set up your Qt environment?

Yes, I have Qt installed. What are the basic steps to create a 3D scene?

First, create a Qt 3D window, then set up a scene with entities, components, and a camera. Would you like a code example?

Yes, please provide a simple code example to get started.

Here's a basic example:

#include <Qt3DCore/QEntity>
#include <Qt3DExtras/Qt3DWindow>
#include <Qt3DExtras/QSphereMesh>
#include <Qt3DExtras/QPhongMaterial>

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    Qt3DExtras::Qt3DWindow view;
    Qt3DCore::QEntity *rootEntity = new Qt3DCore::QEntity();
    
    auto *sphere = new Qt3DExtras::QSphereMesh();
    auto *material = new Qt3DExtras::QPhongMaterial();
    
    auto *sphereEntity = new Qt3DCore::QEntity(rootEntity);
    sphereEntity->addComponent(sphere);
    sphereEntity->addComponent(material);
    
    view.setRootEntity(rootEntity);
    view.show();
    return app.exec();
}

This creates a simple 3D sphere.
