IRIS Explorer is an Open
Inventor based product. Open Inventor provides a de facto
standard for 3-D scene definition and was the basis of the VRML (Virtual Reality
Modeling Language) extension to HTML and the World Wide Web.
IRIS Explorer renders visualisations using
OpenGL, the long-established
standard for 3D
display API.
Further details of the Scheme language, on which IRIS Explorer's scripting language Skm is based, can be found at the main Scheme page or via the Yahoo Scheme Index
