Michalis Kamburelis has summarized the use of weights and control points in X3D. Note that the X3D terminology is different from the terminology used in the STEP standard. As specified in Part 42 of the STEP (ISO 10303) the "control points" attribute of a b-spline (including nurbs) entity contains the coordinates a point in real, not homegeneous, space.
