Blend4Web is a tool for interactive 3D visualization on the Internet. Our framework is well suited for showcasing products, e-learning, game development, advertising and webdesign.
The major distinguishing features of Blend4Web are:
- It works right in the web browser without installing any plug-ins (WebGL technology);
- Not only does it render 3D graphics but it also integrates realistic physics and spatial audio;
- It is extremely simple to use because it is based on Blender in which 3D scenes can be made and then directly exported, even as a standalone web page;
- It is available as a fully functional open source version or as under a paid commercial license.
- It does not depend on any non-free components or cloud services.
This repo mirrors the free SDK distribution which can be also downloaded from the official site.
Setting up the development environment suits 3D application developers. To familiarize yourself with the Blend4Web addon Quick Installation can be a better option.
