A possible starting place for this kind of project might be tapping into the new
WebGL capabilities of Firefox and Chrome (and hopefully once things have
standardized, other browsers as well).
See the following link for examples of WebGL in action:
http://www.khronos.org/webgl/wiki/Demo_Repository
(these demos require Firefox 4 with WebGL enabled to work)

| (...) I agree that this seems a good fit for WebGL, but there is one problem. LDraw.org is FAR too slow to serve up the part files for a web-based viewer without driving the user crazy. A plugin could install a local copy of the parts library. (...) (13 years ago, 24-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| Are there any plans on creating an LDView-based browser plugin? It would be nice if a plugin were added to the Firefox or Chrome plugin libraries, as well as automatically loaded and found when encountering LDraw files. -Mike (13 years ago, 19-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)
