Cortona Software Development Kit (SDK) Coming soon!
Now you can easily incorporate 3D in your web-sites
or stand alone applications.
Cortona SDK is a set of documents that describes how you
can use Cortona's 3D engine inside your applications written
in HTML, Java, Visual Basic, C/C++, Delphi, etc.
It contains:
- Cortona Engine Binary files;
- Descriptions of Automation Interface;
- Usage examples.
Please visit SHOWROOM at our web site and see the demos
that were written with usage of Automation Interface:
Protective Windows, Real estate, Virtual Manual.
The Automation Interface is designed to allow an external
environment to access nodes in a VRML scene using the
existing ParallelGraphics Cortona ActiveX Control.
The Automation Interface (VRML Automation) is high level
interface ideal for Windows. It was developed as an alternative
to VRML 2.0 External Authoring Interface.
Automation Interface does not depend on program language.
It works with any one. In addition it is very simple in use and
suitable.
Cortona's engine is also possible to use via low-level iHandle
interface.
The automation interface is so powerful that we created a whole
application around it. This is our revolutionary tool -
Internet Scene Assembler. See our web site for more details.
Another example of what can be done with Cortona SDK is
ParallelGraphics VRML Screen Saver. More information is below.
