VRML

Virtual Reality Modelling Language pronounced as vermal and its started to use in year 1995. Initially, this is also called by a name Virtual Really Markup language. This is a standard language which is used for interactive simulation with in the world wide web. It allows to represent 3-dimensional interactive vector graphics and a “virtual worlds” networked via internet and hyper linked with the world wide web.
VRML is  text file format Which able to design vertices  and edges for 3D polygon  with any of the specified color. It is also used to perform UV mapping  which create the 3D models of the 2D image. VRML files are commonly called with a name of “worlds”  and have .wrl extension. VRML worlds contain the text format so that it easily compressed by using the gzip and compressed file transfer through internet more quickly.
VRML  architecture include the Input processor, Simulation processor, Rendering Processor and World Database. Input Processor is used to control the input information to the computer e.g. Keyboard, mouse, 3D position trackers and a voice recognition system. Simulation Processor is the heart of Virtual Reality system. It takes the user input along with a number of task that are programmed with it and determine the actions that will take place in the virtual environment. Rendering processor  is used to create sensation that are output to the user. World Database is  also known as World Description Files. It store the objects that describe the actions of all those objects.
VRML is successfully used in various field like Entertainment, Medicine, Manufacturing, Education and training. In Entertainment, it is helpful in designing a more attractive and exciting virtual environment. In medicine, used to perform the practice test of surgery, surgery on remote patient and teach new skills in a safe, controlled environment. In manufacturing, used to make a low cost and highly efficient products. In education and training used to driving, flight, ship and tank simulators .

TerrainCAD 地形產生器

TerrainCAD is a terrain generation, editing and modeling software. Powered by TerrainLib, TerrainCAD employs blazing fast and robust algorithms to create and modify terrain meshes in no time. The capabilities of TerrainCAD can be broadly classified as (1) Terrain Generation, (2) Terrain Editing, and (3) Terrain Modeling Terrain Generation: TerrainCAD creates a terrain mesh from a set of unorganized survey points, breaklines and contours. The terrain mesh is created as a Delaunay Triangulation, which is regarded as the best method to create a terrain mesh from unorganized point data. TerrainCAD can also generate a terrain mesh directly from contours only. Breaklines can be employed to give TerrainCAD the intelligence to create superior terrain meshes that accurately resemble the actual landscape to be recreated. Terrain Editing: Often terrain meshes need to be manually edited for various reasons. TerrainCAD makes this very easy by offering a host of terrain mesh editing commands. TerrainCAD has very useful commands to edit vertices, edges and faces of a terrain mesh. Terrain Modeling: TerrainCAD also offers several mesh modeling commands. These commands help in altering the general topology of the mesh thereby making it suitable for furtheroperations.

Action3D Reducer

Action3D Reducer is a great polygon reduction tool that changes the level of detail in real-time and creates both .3ds and .x files. This is the demo version which is save-disabled.

To reduce a 3d object, Reducer creates a progressive mesh. You can reduce and increase the number of triangles displayed by a progressive mesh in real-time using a slider control. You can also display a progressive mesh with the lowest triangles count for the... 

VIZup Optimizer

Optimize 3D models for real-time visualization (by polygon reduction). Decimates the number of polygons, in result reduces 3D file size and increases 3D rendering performance. Utilise existing CAD-data to 3D product presentations or to virtual training scenarious. Evaluate different LODs and freely rotate the the model together as well zoom in on specific details. Supports VRML format.

From our customers:
I've tried out several commercial polygon reduction tools in the past, and this is easily as good or better than them. It's extremely simple to use and the polygon reduction is great. Very useful for simplifying models made with nurbs or metaballs. It reduced a high-poly vrml model from 617kb to 115kb with practically no difference in appearance. I had to check the wireframe view to be sure of what I was seeing lol. Congrats on a cool tool :)
Stuart

"Great program, and best of all free." While only supporting one format and you can not view your model with the program. It is still awseome! The reduction methods are great and high poly models when reduced, arn't butchered and can signifitly reduce the polycount with out major quality reduction. Cheers to the developers for this great program (and making it free ;)) mus have for any modeler.
Paul

We are right now using XXX (one very expensive reduction tool) and I tested your software and it worked good. In some case better (preserved more details) and in some case a little bit worse. But in total I was very impressed. We want to use CAD files and we all know how much work it is to opimize CAD for real-time. Since there are a wide range of different CAD formats we have to select a format that everybody can export to and I guess that is VRML or maybe stl.

The Ark Roleplaying Kernel

The Ark Roleplaying Kernel project is a 3D multiplayer roleplaying engine. The Ark Roleplaying Kernel is a roleplaying engine that will allow game developers to create a full- featured role playing game, without having to write a single line of C++. All they have to do is to create game data (models, textures, world), and define the behaviour NPCs, in Lua. The engine contains a full outdoor 3D engine, with support for skeletal animation, and triangle- accurate collision detection. It also contains tools to create world and quests, and loaders for the most common low-polygon 3D formats. After an never-ending war which had begun because of the arrival of the daphyrings (insect-like creatures) which some humans feared, the planet sank bit by bit into a Middle-Age-like ignorance. From the bits of a rich and united nation were born numerous empires ever waging war between themselves. Humans having forgotten all their knowledge use the seldom-found devices of the ancient civilization such as magical artifacts, for they now know only how to forge old-fashioned weapons such as swords, axes, bows... Fauna and flora themselves have been modified, because of the cataclysms (nuclear incidents) which occurred during the Great War. These accidents have also divided humans into many clans yet having a common religion. It is in this world, named Arkhart, that the game named for the moment ArkhartRPG (ah, such originality!) takes place..
