Description
This chapter shows the evolution of our research that brought us to the development of the OpenWebTalk framework. We presented the OWT framework emphasising rendering performance features, configurability and flexibility according to our configuration and collaboration model. Our framework used G3D as the rendering engine, one of the most important rendering engines in the commercial and scientific arena. It uses hardware acceleration to grant high performance and high rendering accuracy. We used `Newton dynamics' as the external physics module that allowed us to introduce into the framework very accurate collision and occlusion calculation without overloading the framework.
