Basic Examples Archive Javadoc

The X3D Graphics Basic Examples Archive provides a wide variety of basic open-source examples that show how to design and build X3D scenes.

Many of these scenes have been used for confirmation, development and testing of essential node capabilities in X3D.

• This X3D Graphics Basic Examples Archive is part of the X3D Examples Archives.
• These Java examples use the X3D Java Scene Access Interface Library (X3DJSAIL).
• The Web3D Consortium supports thousands of open source X3D models. Join today!

Packages

Package	Description

Basic.ChemicalMarkupLanguage	Chemical Markup Language (CML) provides support for most chemistry including molecules, compounds, reactions, spectra, crystals and computational chemistry.
Basic.course	These examples have been used in X3D course materials.
Basic.development	These scene examples support specification development, player implementations, and demonstration of exemplar X3D capabilities.
Basic.DistributedInteractiveSimulation	Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) is an IEEE standard for conducting real-time platform-level gaming across multiple host computers and is used worldwide, especially by military organizations but also by other agencies such as those involved in space exploration and medicine.
Basic.ExperimentalBinaryCompression	Experimental Binary Compression algorithm models demonstrate the potential of geometric compression techniques.
Basic.ExternalAuthoringInterface	VRML97 External Authoring Interface (EAI) was used to pass events from HTML scripts into VRML97 scene scripts.
Basic.Followers	The X3D Followers component supports specialized linear interpolation for various data types to achieve smooth behavior animation.
Basic.Geospatial	The X3D Geospatial component provides support for geographic and geospatial applications that includes the ability to utilize double-precision geospatial coordinates and to handle large multi-resolution terrain databases.

Basic.Networking	This directory includes several experiments with X3D Networking.
Basic.NURBS	Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline (NURBS) provide a parametric mathematical model for generating and representing smooth curves and surfaces.
Basic.Points	This directory includes experiments with extensions for X3D Points and point-scanning examples.
Basic.RigidBodyPhysics	Rigid Body Physics modeling deals with objects as solid, unchangeable sets of mass having a velocity that can be connected together via various joint types that allow one body's motion to affect another.
Basic.ScriptConformance	Script Conformance examples test the ability of Script nodes to receive, process and produce events that respond to user commands and trigger animation behaviors in the X3D scene graph.
Basic.Security	Security is an essential part of Web activity - this directory documents how to apply World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) security standards for XML Encryption (privacy) and XML Digital Signature (authentication) to X3D scenes.
Basic.Shaders	Shaders are special programs that interact directly with graphics hardware for special effects using light, darkness, and color within a model's appearance.
Basic.StudentProjects	Student Projects are interesting and fun!
Basic.Units	Unit statements can redefine the base units of length/angle/force/mass values in an X3D scene from meters/radians/newtons/kilograms to other units of interest.
Basic.UniversalMediaMaterials	Universal Media Materials provide numerous complex Material values to simplify scene authoring and improve geometry appearance.
Basic.UniversalMediaPanoramas	Universal Media Panoramas are texture-mapped high-resolution Background nodes.
Basic.VolumeRendering	The X3D Volume Rendering component represents a 3D portion of space with a renderable grid of voxel values for advanced visualization and presentation techniques.
