One of our plans for VOS is VRML and X3D support. Unfortunately I
haven't made any progress on it recently.

The VRML/X3D "engine" will run on one or more servers. Users will view
the world in a client that is connected to those servers using the VOS
network protocol and object models.

Let me know if you want more info or want to help implement this.

Lauren,

you were clear enough - I was just reinterpreting a bit because I don't
think I have seen 
such a thing for x3d. But there are some potential candidates as a starting
point, such as vos, vrspace or deepmatrix, to 
perhaps link with an X3D browser. I just don't know enough about them
to comment on their specific strengths/weaknesses.

2007-03-14 Thread chris 

Lauren,

you were clear enough - I was just reinterpreting a bit because I don't
think I have seen
such a thing for x3d. But there are some potential candidates as a starting
point, such as vos, vrspace or deepmatrix, to
perhaps link with an X3D browser. I just don't know enough about them
to comment on their specific strengths/weaknesses.
