Intervista Software, a provider of
3D platforms and applications, launched WorldView for Developers, an ActiveX
control that enables developers to embed interactive 3D into their
applications, including advertisements.
Rather than building a graphics system from low-level libraries such as
OpenGL or Direct 3D, developers can now concentrate on content defined with
VRML, the SO standard for interactive 3D, the company said.
Based on Intervista’s WorldView browser, WorldView for Developers may be
used in application containers developed in any Windows development
environment, including Microsoft’s Visual Basic and Visual C++ as well as
COM-enabled Java development tools.
“WorldView for Developers makes it easy for software vendors running on
Internet time to create innovative, market leading applications,” said Tony
Parisi, CEO of Intervista Software.
WorldView for Developers is freely available for development and evaluation
purposes. Support and run-time distribution requires a license.
