other neat uses of similar technology

Hi Jeremy

Thanks for the links. I did not know about cl3ver - which appears to be yet another pay-to-play server-based drawing viewer based on Three.js.

The nice thing is what I call 'augmented un-reality'. As you move the cursor around, 2D and textual info pops up - either in-world or on the parent window.

As is often the case, the augmentation is lightweight data. What you really want to be able to do is see what the building should look like at week 43 and what has actually been built. Or click on an item and see the spec clause or cubic meters yet to be delivered.

None of this is technically difficult. It's all much more of an issue of building the test cases for all the different file types and managing large numbers of modules (each of which is actually quite simple).

More later...

hi guys,

are you aware of cl3ver?

they very cl3verly use the numeral 3 in the same way as we do in va3c :-)

here are two neat demos:

http://3d.cl3ver.com/uWfsD?tryitlocation=3

http://3d.cl3ver.com/19xeEl?tryitlocation=0

it shows what can be done and where we are all heading...

should we aim at setting up something similar?

here is another neat related technology demo:
