An asymmetric 2D Pointer / 3D Ray for 3D Interaction within Collaborative Virtual Environments
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
In this paper we present a new metaphor for interaction within Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVE). This metaphor is dedicated to non-immersive or semi-immersive 3D interactions, for which users cannot afford to buy ...
Extending X3D for Distributed Multimedia Processing and Control
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
Web-based applications of interactive 3D computer graphics are showing a tendency to get more interconnected and visually complex. Virtual communities like Second Life demand realism not only in terms of realistic rendering, ...
Chemical Education using Feelable Molecules
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
Two different approaches for the preparation of novel cost-effective molecular haptic applications (Figure 1) are described. The former utilises Perl scripting within a commercial molecular modelling package to generate ...
Towards a new Camera Model for X3D
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
Creating and setting the right parameters for the virtual camera is crucial for any content creation process. However, this is not easy since most current camera models, including the X3D Viewpoint, use a 3D position and ...
Integration of Haptics with Web3D using the SAI
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
Haptics force-feedback technology is fast becoming a consumer product and no longer only found in research laboratories. The emergence of the budget Falcon device (Novint Technologies, Inc., USA) represents a key step in ...
ADML: A framework for representing inhabitants in 3D Virtual Worlds
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
Last years, a new fashion over Internet and computer networks has been established: the 3D virtual worlds. Reports about Future Internet predict virtual worlds will play a major role in the configuration of the future ...
Digital Oil and Gas Pipeline Visualization using X3D
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
With the development of oil and gas pipeline construction, management technology and information technology, it is highly desirable to create a visual oil and gas pipeline management system to improve pipeline management ...
Enterprise-level architecture for interactive web-based 3D visualization of geo-referenced repositories
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
Interoperability, interactivity and 3D visualization are three of the most important challenges related to Geographical Information Systems. In the last few years, research on interoperability has evolved from simple ...
A Processing Pipeline for X3D Earth-based Spatial Data View Services
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
Over the last years, a high demand for scenario-specific visualizations of 3D urban models has evolved. At the same time, established service specifications do not yet provide the means to define 3D map products and to ...
X3DOM - A DOM-based HTML5/ X3D Integration Model
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
We present a model that allows to directly integrate X3D nodes into HTML5 DOM content. This model tries to fulfill the promise of the HTML5 specification, which references X3D for declarative 3D scenes but does not define ...
