Virtual Reality and Java 3D - Interactive Web-Based Virtual Reality with Java 3D - page 12

of Java 3D will be presented through a simple example program. In subsequent chapters,
specific topics on the creation of geometries and appearance of 3D objects, the use of tex-
turing and lighting techniques to create realistic effects, the ability for the user to interact
with the virtual 3D world through animation, interaction and behavior, as well as the use
of advanced methodologies such as multiple views and sound effects, will be discussed.
Then, to illustrate how these various techniques can be used in a practical application,
the final chapter will present an implementation of a Web-based 3D real-time laboratory
experiment by using Java 3D.
