The IRIS Explorer geometry datatype is provided by Open Inventor (or IRIS Inventor prior to Release 2.2) which has been used as the basis for the Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) 3-D extension to the World Wide Web.

IRIS Explorer Generated Information

These examples have all been produced using IRIS Explorer. They come from work done for the posters displayed at meetings of the IRIS Explorer User's Group. Each scene has a query (the big red question mark) which comes up in the lower right corner when the opening viewpoint is selected. Click on the query to bring up the relevant poster for background information about the scene.

Examples

An excellent example of work being undertaken in chemical model viewing and interaction by Omer Casher at Imperial College can be found here. There is also an excellent paper on the work. This work uses IRIS Explorer and Omer's EyeVRML viewer with his EyeChem modules.
