  • Family of X3D Specifications;
    • X3D Abstract Specification describes basic functionality
    • XML, ClassicVRML, and Compressed Binary Encoding
    • Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) Ecmascript (Javascript) and Java
  • Relationships between scene graphs, APIs and render layers;
    • Scene graphs are high-level declarative models about how geometry is constructed, colored and animated; these can be expressed as an XML tree
    • APIs are mid-level libraries for programmers to create source code about geometry
    • Render layers are low-level software libraries that expose the functionality of graphics hardware
