The ‘return’ of 3D

Published in Technology, Web


ajax3d.org. Looking at the comments, it’s funny to see people disdain the return of 3D to the web. Following history, 3D web technology is following the standard work we use it for creating and driving in both generated and geo-specific worlds. Engineers use it for visualizing vehicle dynamics, human-machine interaction, and new city-scapes.

Unfortunately, Media Machines isn’t helping their case by using a demo, Strike Fighter v.3 Game, that causes flashback to the early ’90s. And their plugin, Flux is PC only (meaning Microsoft Windows). They say “for now”, but the source uses DirectShow and ActiveX, two technologies that are most definitely not on any other platform.
