After making DirectX 10 available for Windows Vista, Microsoft has released this DirectX 11 with DirectX 3D 11 for Windows 7.Direct X 3D (the 3D graphics API within DirectX) is widely used in the development of video games for example, Microsoft Xbox etc. Direct3D is also used by other software applications for visualization and graphics tasks.
