X3D Example Archives: Basic, course

Becky's Road Overpass, sixth grade project

These scenes have been used in X3D course materials.

These are simple example scenes that are useful for teaching and course work. Some have been developed by students learning X3D. A much larger set of scenes and slidesets have been developed as the X3D for Web Authors Examples Archive.

   BeckyRoadOverpass BeckyRoadOverpass Sixth grade project to build a highway overpass.
   CreateVrmlFromStringRandomBoxes CreateVrmlFromStringRandomBoxes Sample world constructed in a Script node using the EcmaScript Browser call createVrmlFromString.
   CreateX3DFromStringRandomSpheres CreateX3DFromStringRandomSpheres Sample world constructed in a Script node using the EcmaScript Browser call createX3DFromString.
   ExtrusionCrossSectionExampleShip ExtrusionCrossSectionExampleShip Ship model as example use of ExtrusionCrossSectionPrototype for drawing several different Extrusion spines and cross sections.
   ExtrusionCrossSectionExampleTorus ExtrusionCrossSectionExampleTorus Torus example demonstrating cross-section prototype for Extrusion node that also draws spine line plus oriented, scaled cross sections at each spine point.
   ExtrusionCrossSectionPrototype ExtrusionCrossSectionPrototype Shape prototype for Extrusion node that also draws spine line plus oriented, scaled cross sections at each spine point.
   ExtrusionExampleShip ExtrusionExampleShip Ship model for drawing several different Extrusion spines and cross sections - see ExtrusionCrossSectionExampleShip for corresponding use of ExtrusionCrossSectionPrototype.
   ExtrusionHeart ExtrusionHeart Simple extrusion of a Valentine heart.
   GeometryExample GeometryExample User-modifiable example to examine the role of the geometry tag. See what nodes can be replaced: geometry (no) and Cylinder (yes).
   GroupFormation GroupFormation Simple example to demonstrate rotating a Group of copied, elongated Boxes.
   HelloX3dAuthors HelloX3dAuthors Simple example showing spinning globe and text. Hello!
   HelloX3dAuthorsAnimationChain HelloX3dAuthorsAnimationChain Fully developed animation-chain example showing spinning globe and text. Hello!
   ModelOrientation ModelOrientation X Y Z axis arrows and labels of X3D coordinate system to illustrate default entity center of gravity at 0 0 0, with default nose orientation pointing along the +X-axis. Ground vehicles have their position raised to allow bottom to touch the ground.
   PositionInterpolatorExample PositionInterpolatorExample Simple PositionInterpolator example that bounces a Box up and down.
   Pyramid Pyramid Constructing a Pyramid geometric primitive in order to show use of points and coordinate indices.
   PyramidWithAxes PyramidWithAxes Constructing a Pyramid geometric primitive in order to show use of points and coordinate indices. Coordinate axes superimposed.
   SimpleCarrierHull SimpleCarrierHull Using Extrusion to model a simple hull. Scaled VRML coordinate axes superimposed.
   SimpleExtrusionShipHull SimpleExtrusionShipHull Using Extrusion to model a ship hull and deck.
