Ajax3D combines the visual richness and interactivity of X3D, the ISO standard for networked 3D graphics, with the ease of use and ubiquity of Ajax, a set of Javascript and XML programming methods for developing web applications. Ajax3D employs the X3D Scene Access Interface (SAI) for controlling 3D worlds within a web browser via Javascript. Ajax3D content can be viewed with any web browser with an X3D-compliant plug-in. X3D plug-ins and player applications can be found at www.web3d.org.

The potential of Ajax3D is up to the imagination and skill of content creators and developers working in virtual worlds, games, storytelling, and visualization - just to name a few possible applications.

Ajax3D was developed for the open source community by Media Machines, creator of the Flux 3D Player plug-in for Internet Explorer and Firefox on the PC.
