Hi Anselm,
I don't think so. These technologies are targetting the same or at least very
overlapping application areas.
I think, every application done in VRML could also have been done based on Java3D. On
the other hand I think that it's no problem to build very complex applications in
Java3D but in VRML such complex applications are very hard to handle because of the
interfaces to other technologies (java, javascript, eai, ...).
So I would say VRML is a nice geometry file format, but for building complex
applications Java3D ist the better technology.
And even those people who don't what to touch code (designers, architects, ...) could
use standard Java3D applets which understand their specific file formats (max, 3ds,
dxf, ...)
Or am I wrong?
Thanks for your answer.
