Upcoming 2024 Webinars

Title Speaker Date      Description
Integrating WebXR Content in X3DOM Dr. Nicholas Polys To be announced

Integrating WebXR Content in X3DOM: Supporting Navigation and Custom Functions in X3D Scenes
X3D the HTML way! Dr. Nicholas Polys To be announced This webinar focuses on some fascinating aspects of the modern standards ecosystem that support the Web-based 3D scences. Today we will see how using the Document Object Model (DOM), the X3D scene graph is now part of the web page, enables web authors to operate on 3D scene elements directly.
Architectural and BIM applications of X3D visualization. Dr. Vince Marchetti To be announced

This webinar will present examples of using X3D to visualize architectural scenes as well as BIM, Building Information Modeling, content. Live web based X3D scenes will be demonstrated and the authoring tools and techniques used to create the X3D scenes will be explained.
X3D Security Dr. Don Brutzman  

To be announced

Security is an essential part of Web activity. The X3D4 Architecture is designed for creation and publication of secure models that simply avoid vectors for end-user vulnerabilities. A full power of Web Security can be applied to X3D Graphics models. Learn and see examples to how to apply World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) security standards for XML Encryption (privacy) and XML Digital Signature (authentication) to X3D scenes.
