  • Your vid is a favorite on Asuncion

  • Your video is a favorite on Ouagadougou

  • Wow That is an Awesome Demo but I do not like Flash that much.

  • HTML5

  • i am absolutely and completely in love with Google Graphics. Wanting so much to be able to access such wonders since 1990 -the dream of what computer animation could achieve/create. The knowledge that it is helping autistic children makes my heart sing. Thank you.

  • Comment removed

  • Great

    

  • WOW! This kills anything shockwave could do and it had a FPS.

  • I never realized what could be done in google

  • Damn google .. They just owned adobe.

  • Google win!

  • Bloody hell, I never would have thought javascript can do such things. :D

    And thank god open source, wich is a major plus point over flash and silverlight.

  • Love how Google scraped the project for Mozilla's 3D implementation.

    And no, Flash won't die for years to come as long as it is such an attractive developer platform.

  • @MicroHive Silverlight is a much more attractive developer platform, with the only problem that it can't make 3D graphics except for some predefined effects (this is because DirectX isn't portable while Silverlight must be). Silverlight and O3D will wipe Flash out, and that will be the happiest day of the web community.

  • @illpickanamelater, how so? I can't really imagine Silverlight's coming 3D implementation becoming a major player because of the adaptation of Mozilla's solution of 3D into HTML5 by Google.

    No matter what you say Flash will remain an attractive platform for developers for the years to come. They're not going to abandon such a sturdy and working platform simply because of Apple's stunt and constant bashing.

    Don't forget that Silverlight just like Flash are plugins. We're moving away from that.

  • Watching this with Opera 10.60 Beta RC1 Build 3422

  • maybe o3D is a great API,but if there is no any IDE for develop O3D project,it can't become useful.

  • @namdoyle You'd don't need an IDE.

    You just use Notepad.

    It already is useful.

  • i'm using firefox 3.6 right now and can't play this video.Shame

  • will it work with windows or just mac?windows 7?

  • It doesn't work for mee :/

  • @armallegro - Which browser are you using? IE?

  • THEY HAVE QUIT THEIR PROJECT.

    right now they will work along with web gl and i personally am appalled.

    i have worked with both now and the time it took me to make a nice animated setup and even early beginnings of a game with the O3d plug in is far more efficient.

    more over their one tg zipped file is dozens of times better then downloading dozens of separate files.

    Web gl also requires you to have a open gl hardware accelerator in order not to get crappy and choppy software renderings.

  • @zool201975 thats what you risk for early adoption, just look at all the people that spend money on HD DVD

  • lol prons would be great with this

  • lawl porns would be great with this... B^)

  • lawl porns would be great with this... B^)

  • already done by unity (they even did the first beach scene- original google :\), vrml, virtools, adobe atmosphere and the million other products. Yawn.

  • -Looks out window-

    -Watches Java empire collapse -

    -Laughs-

  • i can haz a plethora of 3D javascript objects? amazing!

  • WOW SO GOOD GRAPICHS ... what a lod of shit

  • so, with HTML 5, you cant use the spacebar to start/pause videos, or at least i cant

  • Browsers still need a way to go.

    These graphics are 1999 pirate game graphics to me.

  • I've got Firefox 3.6 and usually it's support HTML5 ,but it doesn't

  • Im stoked Google is pumping HTML 5 full of usefull APIs and powerfull web tools.

  • With this, Google has won.

  • OMFG O.O

  • HTML5 huh? exelent stuff!

  • html5 shouldnt compete with flash, it should erase it from the map!

    unfortunately though, its taking a very long time to become a reality...

  • As long as the people dictating the standards do not make a decision to implement such an api on a large scale, it will only remain a good idea.

    And you can bet Adobe will do everything in it's power to prevent such apis from taking over.

  • omigod, Flash is gone

  • Flash SUCKS!!!! Finally, there is a strong contender that can wipe flash out.

  • @TejasM14 OH YEAH! I'm viewing this video in HTML 5!

  • @TejasM14 Ive tested HTML5 videos and the browser who runs the video faster is Opera. ww.w(dot)opera(dot)c.om

  • @TejasM14 sorry but that conteder is unity, and flash has a long way to go, man people prefer to make games with flash. Even with unity on kongregate, most new games are still made with flash.

  • amazing!

  • Ya bu Devrim. Süper gelişmeler bizi bekliyor..

  • Sweet! When this comes out, things like the ipod touch and iphone can have a flash alternative! Apple and google work together, and can give us something to actually watch when in the safari browser on the iphone. Btw, Apple and adobe are kinda feuding with each other for the time being, which is why the iphone doesnt have flash for now... :(

  • Because Apple wouldn't like it to start the conversation with his old enemy adobe.

  • PLEASE HURRY I'M SICK OF FLASH!!!!

  • @SushiHead20 I'm too! :D

  • OMG!It's the awesomest for me%

  • Using HTML5, this page has never loaded faster for me.. It doesn't even have the annoying flash bugs that Adobe refuses to remove. I'd be willing to bet with the advance of HTML5, we could finally start using 64bit browsers for actually using the full potential of our ram and CPU

  • unity3d has been doing a better job then -3d for years. check out their webplayer google search unity3d

  • this is pretty awesome but i would never have the patience to work with this and design myself a good animation :)

  • the HTML5 doesn't work on Firefox, both 3.5.5 and 3.6b4, but it works on Google Chrome. Weird. The HTML5 version for Dailymotion worked on Firefox.

  • @tablo213

    The goal was to have open video contents, and a browser that supported a free codec, so html5 should use theora , but it seems as chrome is using mp4 instead, at least so far, voting for theora is open now, but you have some big proprietary show stoppers like Apple and Microsoft that don't like the idea of an open standard codec.

    I hope Google make an offer they can't refuse.

  • The o3d plugin isn't compatible

  • its so goooooogly gooooooooood

  • Looks nice for a browser, comparable to DX8 or earlier.

  • it woks on IE

  • What kind of music genre is this?

  • ambient

  • muzak

  • Looks damn good.

  • at last no more papervision hehe :-)

  • What about Adobe Shockwave 3d?

    Is there any difference between them?

  • Wow, all the demos look a LOT like Unreal Engine 3, although it runs somewhat smoother (and doesn't have the horrible bloom). It even has the same issues (skippy movement - server replication issue; water near the screen edges is distorted - distortion problem, etc) and the Simple Scene Viewer seems to be taken directly from the Static Mesh Browser.

  • it does on mine

  • I'm not sure if this is going to become any new standard in online gaming, but it is undoubtedly very powerful. The only draw back is using javascript to run any game will make it insanely easy to hack and cheat away. I see this more as a powerful tool for creating online demos and websites that could leverage 3D, such as architecture & design, as well as real estate.

    Incredible stuff though. I'm excited to see how it progresses.

  • why do you think it should be used for games

  • I see the future of gaming with O3D.

  • that's what I saw too *drools*

  • Leo talked about this on his show.

  • Not to mention, will it support encrypted data? The rendering effects are all unobfuscated and ready for viewing in the page's source.

  • But how is its security? It exists within the browser, and browser code can be changed to effect different results on runtime, especially given that the project is open-source. Is it really feasible to develop online games, much less MOGs, on this platform? I haven't looked at the API, but I'm going to go ahead and guess that for things involving more than rendering 3D environments, Java is still king.

  • why doesn't it work for me the vid wont pla i have downloaded firefoc 3.5 and the O3D API but the vid wont play.

    I have windows vista home premium

    AMD X64 duel core prossesor

    and ati readion graphics card

  • Try rebooting.

  • the web IS the platform.. no serious developer wants to be "constrained" by any corporate platform like microsoft's or apple's..

    of course, the web has a long way to go in terms of efficiency (especially TCP/IP, the backbone of the internet as we know it)

    but the move forward towards a platform that is not controlled by any single company (not even google) is a good thing!

  • That is exactly right! I hope just like you that this is our future. I am real tired of Microsoft dictating what runs on my computer. Apple isn't any better either. I like being able to build my PC's instead the proprietary model apple has. I would rather have the freedom to decide what parts are the best for my money and I will come out cheaper with a better computer than an apple and it is better for the economy at the same time.

  • ummm.... yes....

  • My Goodness

  • He uses Firefox as webbrowser.

  • 1° sorry 4 my english. He uses safari, because are on a Mac. On April,2009, chrome was not avaiable to mac.

    And again, sorry for my english

  • But look the Buttons are defnitley from Firefox 3.x. You can compare it using the Google Picture Search.

  • Sorry, that's Safari. Firefox has skins that look like Safari, but this is not it. If Google was going to use a non-Mac browser, they would use Chrome, which O3D does run well in.

  • Look at the back and forward button.

    Firefox ja-miller(dot)com / firefox / mac.jpg

    and Safari: de(dot)wikipedia(dot)org / wiki / Datei:Safari4_osx.png

  • @oldmarriedgamerSG It's Firefox. Chrome's not available for the Mac yet (it's only in dev right now), but will be soon. Google's a very platform-agnostic organization... their workforce, last I heard, was about 40% Win, 40% Mac, and 20% Linux. They regularly do demos using other browsers besides Chrome.

  • Aham

    Franco, isso nao se chama nem Safari, Nem Google Chrome, e sim Firefox, também conhecido como Mozilla Firefox, o que eu no Mac acho que eh bem melhor que o Safari

  • No, firefox works on mac os x. There is chrome for mac.

    Firefox DOES NOT look like safari. That looks just like firefox. The buttons are not identical. Excuse me, but you don't know a crap of what safari looks like. Firefox is for mac and google is for mac. Don't tell me otherwise, because it's open right now WITHOUT VMware Fusion OR bootcamp.

  • @sawmaster2 Easy there sawmaster2. Firefox in fact DOES look like Safari, as the Firefox team actually used the Safari UI for inspiration when building FF's UI. Firefox, nor Google, are "for" Mac, nor is Chrome. Firefox is available for almost every platform, Chrome's getting there (it's officially Windows only at the moment), and Google is a company.

  • Google is the God and God wants to change everything.....

  • no doubt... future softwares are web applications...

  • All of the demos are working, but in the Beach demo there is only the water and the background picture, but there´s no island.

    I tried it with FF 3,5 and IE7 but both had the same results.

  • ummm.... no.....

  • It looks nice, but I cannot get it to work on Firefox 3.5 for some reason (on the youtube/html5 page, that is).

  • does not work using ff 3.5 and vista

  • that doest look very good realy there are free download games that look like taht a psp looks that good

  • cool, but highly impractical. the idea that everything will someday be entirely web-based is nightmareish. you could lose everything in an instant. it's good to have software, and it's good for some things to be independent of your web browser.

  • Well, browser-based 3d games aren't that bad. When it comes to office applications, on the other hand, I agree with you (especially when it's confidential business stuff). *hypocritically glares at Google Docs*

  • I don't get the point of this.

  • Are you kidding? This opens up a world of potential! Graphical websites can use 3D for an awesome presentation of their work, game companies can use it for in-browser games, heck, even things like special IMs, virtual worlds or walking-through-the-internet become possible! It could open up a whole new way to use the web, if used properly.

    Well, at least it's coool. Much better than, say, VRML.

  • yes,at LAST PEOPLE!! THE FUTURE IS HERE. XD No more quad core,No more

    installing games,No more:Unreal tournament,UTIII,Garry's mod,World of warcraft,no more Halo III No more.ALL

    you need is a Focken pc every day today

    from intel,and super duper lightspeed internet and all your dreams are now

    REALLLLLL!!

  • What? This won't stop people from playing halo 3 UT3 and tournament. How would stop people from playing world of warcraft?

  • it doesn't stop them,they just play it

    straight from the browser, isn't that amazing?! XD.All that without installing the games XD

  • Yeah I already did that. Pretty nice, quality is low (which is going to be fixed) but one thing I noticed is that the videos in the boxes on the right (the thumbnails) actually animate while hovering over them. Pretty nice, can't wait for more advancements in Firefox to fully support HTML 5. I did find this site (besides O3D, which works great actually) with a lot of HTML 5 demo applications. It's interesting. Almost all of them work on Firefox 3.5.

  • firefox 3.5 won't load the HTML 5 demo of this. any help?

  • Same here.

  • nope, same problem.

    doesn't work for me in firefox 3.5pre (shiriteko)...

    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; de; rv:1.9.1pre) Gecko/20090614 Shiretoko/3.5pre Ubiquity/0.1.4

  • Looks like safari 4 is the only browser that supports the HTML 5 on this page. Hopefully firefox.next will support it.

  • no, google chrome supports it

  • oh okay. i heard only safari worked. thanks for filling me in

  • Shiretoko. :)

  • I tried it but it does'nt work with my Video Card. I just downloaded this and it always read a problem with the demo. hope it can work in the future with my video card.

  • For some strange reason this demo triggers memories of Wave Race 64. Anybody?? Anyway, pretty sweet.

  • at last!

    No more papervision hehe... ;-)

  • Wonder if this would work with first generation Macbook Air.

  • Not to mention the kick ass graphics card you need

  • I have an ATI Radeon X600 graphics card. It calls for at least an ATI Radeon X1550. I really just need to get a new computer. New graphics card, new monitor, more hard drive space, Vista, etc. my computer seems so old :P (I got it in '05 or '06) It's an HP Media Center m1095c. It came out July 5th, 2004, bleh.

    Anyways, O3D looks epic, can't wait to start using it.

  • Why can't I embed this video on my blog? : [

  • Not sure why you couldn't do it a week ago but it does work. What platform does your blog use? WordPress, Blogspot or other?

  • wow )) cool)

  • This is really cool! I might think about deving something in it... check out if I do at CodeJustin(.)com

  • Why would I want something like that in a browser? So that a pop-up could jump out of a lake to startle me? No thanks.

  • think about the porn...

  • Or browser games, ppl seem to like them for whatever reasons... :)

  • that's like saying: "why would i want a device to take my music everywhere? so that it can get lost and i lose my money?"

    or how about: "why would i want to have my movies on disks? so that the disks scratches and i'm unable to watch them after I paid for them?"

    I'm sorry, but your comment has not point at all. Limiting the possibility of a new technology just because the possible minor problems it could have is just dumb.

  • DONT DO IT PEOPLE ITS A FKN TRICK!

    What next? We plug into the internet using portable organic consoles devices? EH!

    We battle and fight each other in ultra-realistic, fully submersive environments! We construct weapons in these simulations? EH!

    I AM NOT MAKING A GUN OUT OF A FISH DAMNIT! IM NOT DOING IT!

    Jude Law is cool....

    (If you dont get the reference you fail, possibly harder than me)

  • that's a cool movie lol

  • Stop smoking what you're smoking, or at least buy a little better quality.

  • "I AM NOT MAKING A GUN OUT OF A FISH DAMNIT! IM NOT DOING IT!" Hahaha!

  • that's cool and all but i'm sorry, its a geek thing, i mean, well i see how it can apply on enterteinment, even in advertising, to make things look better, but the web and the internet itself is about information, i don't see how walkng through a 3d envirnment can make information easier to get

  • From an pure information perspective, a well designed 3D interface can often make information more engaging or easier to understand.

    A few examples:

    - Complex 3D charts and graphs.

    - An interactive 3D model of a new prototype for manufacturing

    - An interactive model for the latest sports car

  • thats what i meat by to make things look better - its a visual aid - now what i see people overexited and fiercelly defending is a full blow 3d web! , i've read important people talking about how the web would be composed of virtual worlds. it may integrate on the web much like flash does, but now imagine every single website worked like this, or close to lively... buy things on amazon would be one hell of a pain in the ars...

  • yes, I agree. with smart use of this resource, this can make a difference between commercial sites with 3D and without 3D. think about product details, like the dimensions of size from a lcd monitor - showing how the monitor stays on top of your desk.

  • I love Virtual Worlds like Activeworlds and Second Life.. but to me they are toys, for fun, not the future of the web.

  • ...3d porn? anyone?

  • Cool

  • yeah thats one word to express how i felt too :D the 3D was so smooth

  • Is this presentation done on a Mac? Does that matter?

  • It was run on a mac, however, it is compatible for both =)

  • Ahh, both... Both Mac and Linux you mean.

    ;-)

  • Whatever...

    You might want to review my resume google...

  • You realize that they get thousands of resumes a day.

    Its kinda a dream job

  • +1 vote for fully supporting Chrome cross-platform would be nice

    I'm just surprised that this hasn't happened ages ago. From the get-go when HTML came out, I was like well...what about defining 2D and 3D shapes? It took a long time for Flash to come out, which is still horribly slow, but now FINALLY proper accelerated 3D web standards are coming, I just hope they fully support 2D as well to compete with Flash too.

  • Sorry, I meant to compete with Flash and Silverlight as well, because those need to be made obsolete. They are proprietary and controlled pieces of software and are not open standards, while this here is an actual OPEN STANDARD which will be fully cross-platform.

  • Two statements:

    1. Google will reign the computer branche in the future.

    2. The Internet site standards will be 3D soon. Max. in 10 years.

    Reply if you disagree.

  • They didnt implement this for their own browser ?!?!? :S

  • nice

  • Unity 3D blows this out of the water.

  • Doesn't anyone know about Web3D. O3D has a long way to go baby, years and years....

  • Look's way better then java.

  • This is Java...

    It open up the abillity for java to acces 3D accelration =)

  • Try javascript

  • Does this work with chrome?

  • It should, cause its google who made it =P

  • Awesome !

  • nice

  • RONALDO!

  • Não pode virar 3D, pois a minha internet é discada, se isso vingar não vou conseguir acessar mais nada.

  • very cool when is it comming out?

  • If only we could use a 2d web right...

  • did someone say mmorpg? :)

  • Truly Amazing! Beautiful! Hard to believe this is happening in the browser! Awesome!

  • I am just wondering what browser did they use in the video presentation .I doubt its chrome as its not available on mac

  • It looks like Firefox to me.

  • No, its actually Firefox. Notice the back/forward button and the star in the location bar? :)

  • "Unfortunately O3D doesn't currently run on Tiger (OSX 10.4) although we are working on addressing that issue." I just lol'd at you.

  • Firefox
