Online 3D Business Card  (Apr. 2003 – July 2003)

This project develops a tool capable to dynamically edit the VRML template for customizing the 3d business card. In this project, I cooperated with another developer. We divided this project into three parts. First is the graphics editor written with Java image processing APIs. Next part is the VRML template. Last part is the dynamic web page demonstration implemented using JSP. The image data can be serialized to store the current state for future editing. To do that, the each layers of the image are saved in an array that is a common method used by commercial sophisticated image editors. Moreover, we chose the JSP engine Tomcat 4 to support the dynamic web page; and chose VRML 97 as the 3d image description language for most available of browser plug-in. To speed up the response time, we converted the jar file to PC native language executable file .exe as a standalone application.
