X3D Working Groups: Public Pages
Current work in progress by X3D Working Group:
- X3D version 3.3 is being finalized as an ISO Draft International Standard (DIS) for public review in summer 2012
- X3D Binary Compression Capabilities and Plans
- X3D MIME-Type in X3D Working Group to get official IETF MIME-Type recognition for X3D
- Ongoing review of X3D specification comments and X3D implementation resources
Most X3D working groups are Web3D Consortium member-only, since members have agreed to the Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Policy which effectively prevents any royalty-based technology from being adopted by X3D. This approach provides great value to the public, and also allows both companies and individual professionals to contribute to X3D directly as Web3D Consortium members.
Here are our X3D working group public pages:
- X3D and Augmented Reality Working Group: Extending X3D for AR functionality
- X3D and HTML5 Working Group: Declarative 3D
- X3D CAD Working Group: Computer Aided Design (CAD) extensions to X3D
- X3D Medical Working Group: Volume visualization and medical uses
- X3D Earth Working Group Geospatial representations
- H-Anim Working Group
Meanwhile each working group can still decide to place some work in the open. For example, all HTML5/X3DOM work is completely in the open. Web3D Members can also use the Web3D Members-Only Wiki
X3D Special Interest Groups: Public Pages
X3D Special Interest groups are open to all. This open approach provides great value to the public to explore new technologies and applications for X3D. It also allows both companies and individuals to contribute some technologies towards moving the X3D standard forward.
- X3D and E-Learning Special Interest Group efforts are being discussed on the X3D mailing list
X3D Community Information
- Player support for X3D components
- Tool support for X3D components
- X3D Plugfest to improve interoperability between X3D players
- X3D Implementations
X3D Resources
- X3D Tooltips provides multilingual details on the X3D vocabulary
- How-To Guides
- Node Reference
- X3D Specifications
- X3D Resources provides comprehensive links to many X3D applications, sources and capabilities
