Chapter 1: Using WebSpace (TM)

Using WebSpace: An Overview

Welcome to WebSpace, the Silicon Graphics three dimensional (3D) viewer for the World Wide Web. With WebSpace you can easily navigate and manipulate 3D scenes created in VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language). VRML is an open, platform-independent file format that is largely based on the Silicon Graphics Open InventorTM file format.

You won't need special training or previous experience to use WebSpace. With the navigation controls, you can walk through an art gallery or famous cathedral, fly over a reconstruction of an ancient city, or look at 3D models of products in online catalogs.

WebSpace works in conjunction with HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) browsers such as Netscape Navigator or Mosaic, which you use to browse the World Wide Web.
