WebGL is a very powerful technology for enriching the Web with graphics, but how do we get it into the hands of the creators? Cyrille and Peter will go through some aspects of publishing and delivering 3D models on the WEB through a simple easy pipeline, providing coders, designers and artists alike with a strong and powerful 3D web graphics tool. Not only can you easily bring your 3D models to the WEB, but the Viewer (based on THREE,js) comes with an API which will allow you, your friends and your customers to interact with the 3D model and query elements’ metadata. Then, Cyrille and Peter will demonstrate how WebGL experiences created with the Autodesk engine can be elevated to the next level by delivering these 3D models through a simple web page to Google Cardboard VR (without your having to invest hours of time preparing and publishing your models).
