In this demo with Adam Welc, Ph.D., Senior Research Scientist, Intel:
As Justin Rattner emphasized in his Supercomputing 2009 keynote in November, the Internet is poised to transition from flat, 2D experiences to more immersive 3D experiences. Bringing real world physics to 3D graphics is essential to making these emerging online interactions true-to-life. For instance, realistic, physics-based cloth modeling could enable both virtual clothing design as well as virtual dressing rooms that allow you to âtry outâ clothes on your virtual body and see how they would actually fall on you and match your specific skin tone. Intel Labs have demonstrated JavaScript, the language used broadly to create interactive web pages, taken to new levels of capability. Although JavaScript is used in every browser, itâs mainly used to operate very simple tasks like processing web forms and has performance problems running more complicated activities. JavaScript has been underutilized until now due to the lack of programming ...
