چکیده

The CAESAR (Civilian American and European Surface Anthropometry Resource) project completed in 2002 has collected 3D scans of over 5000 subjects. We have created several 3D visualization tools, utilizing the Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) to provide 3D access via the Web. In addition to simply viewing the 3D scans we have augmented the display of the body with interactive anthropometric landmarks and contour line displays. We have also demonstrated several different techniques for adding motion to the static 3D scans. The use of motion capture data, in particular, opens up new avenues for anthropometric research as applied to a number of engineering design tasks.

A Web3D Based CAESAR Viewer

The CAESAR (Civilian American and European Surface Anthropometry Resource) project completed in 2002 has collected 3D scans of over 5000 subjects. We have created a 3D interface, the NIST CAESAR Viewer (NCV), utilizing the Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) to provide 3D access via the Web. In addition to simply viewing the 3D scans we have augmented the display of the body with interacti...

A Topological Framework for Interactive Queries on 3D Models in the Web

Several technologies exist to create 3D content for the web. With X3D, WebGL, and X3DOM, it is possible to visualize and interact with 3D models in a web browser. Frequently, three-dimensional objects are stored using the X3D file format for the web. However, there is no explicit topological information, which makes it difficult to design fast algorithms for applications that require adjacency ...

Towards Networked Linked Data-Driven Web3D Applications

The Web of Data has grown to a size of several billion triples and provides human interface opportunities and challenges beyond those of the traditional Web. Although Linked Data is now generated at a fast pace and very large scale, we observe that browsing and visualisation of Linked Data is still in its infancy. In parallel to the enormous boost in Linked Data, recent work on integrating 3D g...
