Abstract

This document describes a 3D-viewer component for DWARF.
In the course of the ARCHIE project a new viewer had to be developed, because previous systems developed at the chair for applied software engineering have shown several problems in available solutions. Among them are the lack of a cross-platform solution, performance problems, different interfaces for each browser and missing features like real stereo modes and video seethrough capability.
The goal of my work was the development of a lightweight 3D-viewer as a DWARF component and the support of different 3D-scene description standards. Also different stereo modes and a video see-through mode have been developed.
