3D animation visualization on commercial websites

Abstract

3D technology became more and more a part of our live. Often we even don't know it. 3D technology can be found back in medical applications, cinematographic, automotive design, etc... Only one technology seems to have missed the 3D train, namely the World Wide Web. Internet is still not overwhelmed with 3D content, still and animated. This project analyses the reasons, bottlenecks why 3D technology is so slow in conquering the World Wide Web. The research is focused on 3D visualization in commercial websites. Research is done after the difficulties to include 3D content in a HTML environment. By involving a complete website solution, the ISPN-system, a realistic and immersive environment is setup to research where and what kind of issues may occur. The development of the ISPN-system could be a case on his own eventual done in another Msc project or a PhD project. Main goal of the ISPN-system is to provide decent footage material (visual and data) to graphic designers and website developers. An inquiry will be conducted whether this has some sense.
