There are interfaces to XGobi (the xgobi package on CRAN) and GGobi (RSGGobi from Omegahat, and I have a variation on xgobi()) to allow spinning of point clouds.
You can spin surfaces in the R<-->GL packages, e.g. Duncan Murdoch's at http://www.stats.uwo.ca/faculty/murdoch/software/default.htm and (perhaps: I have not tried this one) Daniel Adler's at http://wsopuppenkiste.wiso.uni-goettingen.de/~dadler/rgl/ On Mon, 23 Jun 2003, Richard A.

(Actually the problem is the user interaction which does not fit well with the S/R graphics model.) -- Brian D.
