public class CapsuleComparison extends Object

CapsuleComparison shows three capsules, using polygons/lines/points rendering, each a hollow cylinder with hemispherical end caps. These models were created by CapsuleGenerator.x3d (producing X3D source on the console) with 36 numberOfPoints around horizontal perimeter, 10 vertical levels, radius 0.5 and total height of 2.
