Abstract

With the emergence of open information spaces such as digital libraries, advanced techniques for interactive visualization of complex and protected 3D documents are needed. This paper presents a new visualization concept which deals with the problems of complexity and security of digital 3D documents in open information spaces. A dynamic combination of remote and local 3D rendering is used to allow scaling of the information quantity on the client side. The software architecture SCA3D (3D Scalable Scenes Architecture), which provides functionality for adaptive visualization and protection of intellectual property rights, is presented.
