[x3d-public] Web3D Consortium Awards Professional Memberships to John Carlson and Andreas Plesch

[Anita Havele]

Web3D Consortium awards professional memberships to community contributors
John Carlson and Andreas Plesch. 

The Consortium is proud to recognize their important efforts towards the
evolution of the X3D standards. Recognizing the critical role that
individuals play in building the 3D Web is especially important to the Web3D
Consortium.

 

John Carlson has been instrumental in development of a new JSON Encoding for
X3D Graphics.  He has created an open-source JavaScript loader that can be
used by many Web libraries and Web developers.  A recent
<https://twitter.com/Web3DConsortium/status/695687691308896256> X3D JSON
Loader visualization video posted on Twitter shows it working as part of the
powerful D3 Data-Driven Documents library.

 

Andreas Plesch has made multiple contributions to the open-source
<http://www.x3dom.org/> X3DOM player, especially supporting efforts of the
X3D Geospatial Working Group.  He has proposed important new capabilities
for  <http://www.web3d.org/x3d4> X3D version 4 and is currently
investigating addition of general support for geospatial reference frames.
