VRML is an acronym for "Virtual
Reality Modeling Language". It is the International Standard
(ISO/IEC 14772) file format for describing interactive 3D multimedia
on the Internet. The first release of the VRML 1.0 specification was
created by Silicon Graphics, Inc. and based on the Open Inventor file
format. The second release of VRML added significantly more interactive
capabilities. It was primarily designed by the Silicon Graphics VRML
team with contributions from Sony Research, Mitra, and many others.
VRML 2.0 was reviewed by the VRML moderated email discussion group
and later adopted and endorsed by many companies and individuals.
In December 1997, VRML97 replaced VRML 2.0 and was formally released
as International Standard ISO/IEC 14772.
Aspects of virtual world display, interaction and internetworking
can be specified using VRML without being dependent on special gear
like head-mounted devices (HMD). It is the intention of its designers
to develop VRML as the standard language for interactive simulation
within the World Wide Web. |
