[x3d-public] Viewing 3D Models on Your Phone

[Leonard Daly]

I wrote a blog post on this topic to illustrate work I have done on 
displaying 3D models on your phone (or tablet) and using the device's 
orientation sensors to control the display. The post is at 
http://realism.com/blog/viewing-3d-your-phone. The collection of 3D 
models is at http://realism.com/models. Thanks to NIH and Fraunhofer for 
the models.

Future posts will discuss some of the other features (e.g., stereoscopic 
views) and the code used to create and manage them.


  Viewing 3D on Your Phone

Smart phones and tablets with recent releases of Chrome, Firefox, 
Safari, or Internet Explorer can display 3D models from the Web. These 
devices also have internal sensors that tell the browser about its 
orientation. The orientation information can be used to manipulate the 
view of the model without needing to interact with the the screen - just 
turning your phone will show you different orientations of the model.
