X3D VR/AR/MAR project reports: Web3D Korea Chapter meeting slidesets and videos online

As many of you know, X3D Graphics is pursuing current improvements to fully align with HTML5 and DOM.

Our plan is to continue these v4.0 efforts throughout this year, backed by two open-source implementations (X3DOM, X_ITE) with other active implementations also proceeding.

Further work will follow with VR, AR, and Mixed Augmented Reality (MAR) in X3D version 4.1.  We expect to use WebXR as a baseline next year for what capabilities should be added next to the X3D scene graph.

The X3D architecture itself is fully declarative.  Since the primary specification is functional, consistent file encodings and programming-language bindings support equivalent expressive power.  Current support includes XML, VRML, JSON, JavaScript (ECMAScript) and Java with additional alternatives in progress (EXI, C/C++/C#, Python).  These specification relationships are illustrated at

As it turns out, a lot of VR/AR/MAR work is occurring already with X3D.  Here are multiple resources FYI.  Direct or public inquiries are always welcome.

====================================================================

The Web3D Korea Chapter and ISO/IEC JTC1/SC24 WG9 Mixed Augmented Reality (MAR) meetings six weeks ago were unbelievably stellar.

Over four dozen slidesets and videos, frequently showing astonishing progress, are now online at
