Low-level construct and application control traversal.
C/C++-based Industry Standard for Graphics.
Ideal for Immediate Mode Rendering.
Heavy emphasis on fast display and decompression making it
ideal for client/server applications.
Support for image processing via Imaging Extensions makes it
ideal for applications that require graphics and imaging such as
Scientific Visualization.
Java 3D
Java 3D
API is a network-centric, scene-graph based 3D graphics API,
that revolutionizes 3D graphics application development across
diverse markets.
Ideal for the following Market Segments.
Content Creation and 3D Web page development.
Virtual reality and VRML browsers.
Education.
Games, especially network-based, multiplayer.
Business graphics, data mining and presentations.
Scientific Visualization - GIS, Oil & Gas market.
MCAD & MCAE, especially design review.
Pharmaceutical/Biotech - Molecular Model Viewing.
Visual Simulation.
Animation.
High Level of abstraction makes it EASY TO USE, simplifying 3D
Graphics Programming. Developers can focus on scene composition and
not rendering details, reducing development time.
Java 3D delivers the "Write Once, Run Anywhere" benefit to 3D
graphics developers.
3D Graphics for the network. Fully built-on the Java Computing
architecture allowing user to take advantage of complementary Java
technologies like Java RMI and JavaBeans components. Well
integrated with other Java Media APIs, enabling deployment of
media-rich apps.
Ideal for Retained Mode Rendering.
Integrated 3D Graphics and 3D Sound enabling rich immersive
environments.
Support for continuous action devices (trackers) and
Head-Mounted Displays.
