Revision as of 10:21, 20 June 2013

X3D version 3.4 Development efforts are evolutionary improvements to the proven X3D Graphics architecture.

Working groups are currently defining goals and requirements.

We expect to add a lot of links and details during this summer's Web3D 2013 and SIGGRAPH 2013 conference meetings.

  • Audio and video: adding royalty-free formats, aural spatialization
  • Computer Aided Design (CAD) Interactive Profile
  • ECMAScript (Javascript) specification revision: confirm compatibility with X3D scripting
  • Geospatial X3D: spatial reference frames, KML support, OGC 3D Portrayal, GpsSensor, mashups
  • Humanoid Animation (H-Anim) new work items
  • Medical improvements
  • Mobile Profile
  • X3D Multitexture is undergoing review for correctness, completeness and conformance of rendering example scenes
  • Rendering: bump maps, projective texture mapping (PTM), shadows
  • Other components may be added by Web3D Consortium members

Notes

X3D version 4.0 Development efforts are focused on HTML5/Declarative 3D/X3DOM and Augmented Reality Continuum (ARC) technologies, which may require architectural changes. Some new technologies may get pushed from 4.0 to 3.4 (or back again) after careful consideration.

As with all other X3D components, all work is defined in the abstract specification has corresponding file encodings (.x3d .x3dv .x3db) and language bindings (ECMAScript and Java).
