Description
Summary:This paper proposes an interactive Web 3D based virtual educational system using O3D-WebGL. The proposed system is capable of providing flexible services without being confined to a specific platform. A virtual educational content was implemented with an educational goal of "saving the earth from global warming. " The developed virtual educational content of global warming consists of two subjects: Amazon and Arctic. The effectiveness of the proposed virtual education system was verified based on implementation of user interaction. A storytelling approach was employed to maximize the interactive experience, and the 3D environment was implemented using O3D of WebGL to provide a user-oriented interface, as well as low-capacity, high-quality data services.
