mjbWorld - Whitepaper

The aim is to build a open and free program to build 3D worlds. Alongside this, it would also be good to work with others to agree free and open standards which would allow similar programs to interchange data.

I would like the program to be able to:

Interactively and graphically build 3D models.
Display them.
Store them and read them in standard formats.
Simulate Newtonian physics so that objects move realistically and collide and interact properly.

Book Shop - Further reading. Where I can, I have put links to Amazon for books that are relevant to the subject, click on the appropriate country flag to get more details of the book or to buy it from them.	This book introduces 3D concepts, VRML, Java3D, MPEG4/BIFS, and X3D. It is a very good introduction to the theory, The writers have an in depth knowledge due to their involvement in the standards making. This is a good book to help you choose which 3D open standards to use and to give you a good insight into these standards. It is probably not for those who want a basic introduction to 3D or for these who want a step-by-step programming in 3D book.
