Proposed Enhancements to the X3D Geospatial Component
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)The Geospatial Component of the X3D Standard suffers from some deficiencies that prevent its wider adoption. This paper addresses two of these deficiencies. The first problem is that in order to reduce spatial jitter content ... -
WebScylla: A 3D Web Application to Visualise the Colonisation of an Artificial Reef
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)Scylla is Europe's first artificial reef and was created by the scuttling of a former Royal Navy frigate off the UK coast in Cornwall. As well as being a popular attraction for divers, the colonisation of the reef is of ... -
2LIP: Filling The Gap Between The Current And The Three-Dimensional Web
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)Paradigm (2LIP), for designing simple yet interactive 3D web applications, an attempt to marry advantages of 3D experience with the advantages of the narrative structure of hypertext. The hypertext information, together ... -
Virtual Rome: a FOSS approach to WEB3D
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)The goal of VirtualRome project (www.virtualrome.it) is to provide a web-based infrastructure for distribution, collection, annotation and sharing over the web of 3D interactive content such as actual and reconstructed ... -
X3D Earth Terrain-Tile Production Chain for Georeferenced Simulation
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)Broad needs for digital models of real environments such as 3D terrain or cyber cities are increasing. Many applications related to modeling and simulation require virtual environments constructed from real-world geospatial ... -
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 ... -
Web Based Presentation of Semantically Tagged 3D Content for Public Sculptures and Monuments in the UK
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)The documentation and presentation of 3D digital content is a critical but non-trivial task for the Cultural Heritage sector. Curators are often faced with the task of cataloguing every piece of heritage and maintaining ... -
3D Modeling in a Web Browser to Formulate Content-Based 3D Queries
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)We present a framework for formulating domain-dependent 3D search queries suitable for content-based 3D search over the web. Users are typically not willing to spend much time to create a 3D query object. They expect to ... -
Interactive stories on the net: a model and an architecture for X3D worlds
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)This work discusses a model and an architecture for interactive stories to be displayed on the net, designed for being independent from the specific story represented and suitable to different literary genres. They are the ... -
Detecting Inconsistencies in the Design of Virtual Environments over the Web using Domain Specific Rules
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)the web for various purposes such as education, collaborative working or social networking. Unfortunately, the development process of such environments remains a demanding task, often accessible only to VE experts despite ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Beyond Viewpoint: X3D Camera Nodes for Digital Cinematography
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)This paper describes four candidate X3D extension nodes: Camera, Shot, Movement and OfflineRendering. An X3D lexicon for camera movements is defined so that individuals directing virtual cameras in X3D can directly apply ... -
An Incremental SMLAOI Algorithm for Progressive Downloading Large Scale WebVR Scenes
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)Interactive downloading huge virtual scenes on Internet is always a challenging task of large scale DVE(Distributed Virtual Environment) systems. Along classical progressive transmission mechanism based on AOI (Area of ... -
RTSG: Ray Tracing for X3D via a Flexible Rendering Framework
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)VRML and X3D are the most widely adopted standards for interactive 3D content interchange. However, they are both designed around the common restricted functionality available in hardware graphics processors. Thus, most ... -
GPU-based Real-time On-surface Droplet Flow in X3D
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)This paper presents a method for the GPU-based real-time simulation of droplet flows on 3D surfaces. It is also outlined, how this approach can be embedded into X3D. Therefore, a concept and its implementation is presented, ... -
Function-based haptic collaboration in X3D
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)We seek to further expand X3D by augmenting it with functionbased definitions of geometry, appearance and tangible physical properties. Besides using alone, the introduced nodes can augment and enrich the standard X3D ...
