I am not an expert in this field but I believe your best options for 3D
rendering would be OpenGL or DirectX.
Do a search on "Delphi DirectX"

Subject: [DUG]: 2D and 3D design issues
Am contemplating a niche app which involves the user laying out
graphical
objects on a 2D surface which is then viewed/amended/saved and
optionally
placed in a room and viewed as 3D.
Should I:
Use the Canvas object and standard delphi graphics stuff?
Use OpenGL? For 3D viewing, convert and save as a .3DS file and use
an
OpenGl viewer. Are there any units/components for creating 3ds
files?
Use some other approach?
