Embedding - for better collaborations - Toshiyuki Takahei [email protected] RIKEN Introduction • I’m working on developing... – Solar System Simulator and its related products – “Universe” Science Live Show (for 9 years) – Stereoscopic Digital Dome Theater – and more. • Today’s Keyword : Embedding GLStereoPlayer (glsp) • Stereo Movie/Image Viewer • Supports many movie/image formats, stereo source types and output types. • One source for many stereoscopic systems. • Open source, a good start point to implement a movie texture in your 3D engine. Next step... Make it be embeddable!! 1. ActiveX – Microsoft’s technology for making an embeddable component in applications, documents and websites. Example: glsp in PowerPoint • With a GeoWall system, you can show both a presentation and stereo resources seamlessly. Embedded Here!! Partiview (and Embedding) • As you know, Partiview is highly useful. • Scientists themselves visualizes data with it. What happens if it becomes embeddable? Example: Partiview in PowerPoint • Demo – how to embed Partiview in this page. Example: Partiview in PowerPoint • • • • Powerful and easy to use. Encapsulate dataset in your presentation. Archive visualizations with documents. VBA scriptable. Embedded Here!! Example: Partiview in Web Browser • For making an interactive documents. • Build your original user interface with usual html, interactions with JavaScript, etc. • Publish it over the internet as it is to make an interactive visualization web site. Make it be embeddable!! 1. ActiveX – Microsoft’s technology for making an embeddable component in applications, documents and websites. 2. Xtra – Macromedia Director’s plug-in architecture. This most powerful authoring tool make your contents highly attractive. Example: Partiview in Director / Xtra • “Macromedia Director” is a de facto standard authoring tool for multimedia contents. • Rich-media contents development, built-in LINGO script language, Shockwave online publishing and wide creator community. Example: Partiview in Director / Xtra Director / Xtra for designing GUIs Make it be embeddable!! 1. ActiveX – Microsoft’s technology for making an embeddable component in applications, documents and websites. 2. Xtra – Macromedia Director’s plug-in architecture. This most powerful authoring tool make your contents highly attractive. 3. 3DCG Software plug-in – Make full use of its productivity and know-how for designing real-time and pre-rendered scenes. Example: Partiview in 3DCG Software • MAYA, 3DSMAX, Lightwave3D and so on. • Use their Plug-in SDK. Demo Example: Partiview in Lightwave3D Example: Partiview in Lightwave3D Example: Partiview in Lightwave3D • Of course, there are lots of skilled creators in 3DCG community. • Direct way of sharing scientific data with scientists and graphics designers. • Design a fly path and object animations for Partiview’s interactive scene. • Design a full scene, add any objects you want, then render to a movie. Conclusion – from other point of view • Embed in documents – for interactive presentations and archiving • Embed in web sites – for easy publishing and sharing • Embed in content development workflow – for productivity and better quality Embedding for better collaboration References • GLStereoPlayer (glsp) http://sourceforge.net/projects/glsp/ • Partiview ActiveX(PPT insertable), Xtra and Lightwave3D plug-in version will be available in the Partiview Mailing List and http://takahei.plala.jp/Partiview/
