Interaction Descriptor for 3D Objects

Streszczenie

Fast development of computer programs that use 3D objects as fragments of the user interface, or use 3D to interactively represent huge amounts of data, depends on the reuse of interactive 3D objects. Objects, which have their own behavior and are independent of particular application. To be able to reuse an object it has to be possible to find the one that matches interaction criteria of a particular computer program. Such search queries cannot be effectively performed without additional description of object interaction properties. In this paper, a new solution for describing interactions is presented. The solution provides a universal model of an interaction along with XML implementations. Therefore, it can be viewed as complete interaction descriptor for 3D objects.
