covering 3D hypermedia on the web. Attendees shared and explored methods of
using, enhancing, and creating new 3D web and multimedia technologies, such as
X3D, VRML, COLLADA, Croquet, MPEG4, Java3D, and Canvas3D. The symposium also
addressed new trends such as interactive 3D graphics applications on mobile
devices.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
