With the emerging Internet technologies, the need for rich and interactive web content has drastically increased. The presentation of information in an attractive way is extremely important for fields like digital libraries, e- Learning and e-Commerce. This paper describes a set of tools we developed for adding visualization of 3D content to new and existing web pages, which can be used by authors with various expertise and skills. Once embedded into a web page, this functionality becomes available on all modern devices and web browsers, without the need to install any additional software.References
