Ajax3D: The Open Platform for Rich 3D Web Applications

Overview Real-time 3D is emerging as a first-class media type for the web. Network bandwidth and graphics hardware processing power are now sufficiently advanced to enable compelling web-based 3D experiences, including games, online virtual worlds, simulations, education and training. Commercial developers are expressing increasing interest in exploiting real time 3D in web applications to enhance production value, create engaging immersive experiences, and deliver information in a more meaningful way. Ajax - Asynchronous Javascript and XML - has emerged as a preferred method for developing sophisticated web applications. Ajax makes client-server programming available to Javascript developers via Dynamic HTML, resulting in rich, responsive applications hosted in a web browser.
