Web 3D Applications (H7006)
15 credits, Level 6
Spring teaching
You'll explore how 3D can be integrated into mobile web-based applications and study technologies such as:
- 3D modelling methods and tools
- navigation and interaction methods
- web-based 3D programming.
You'll also:
- gain experience of 3D modelling and programming (for example 3ds Max, X3D/VRML, X3DOM, HTML, CSS3, XML, JavaScript and associated frameworks and libraries, AJAX, JSON, PHP and SQLite)
- build a web 3D application as a single page application
- exploit sn MVC design patter to build a mobile first 3D app
Example 3D applications may include a virtual museum, product configurator, vehicle visualisation, burglary simulation or simple web game.
We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2026/27. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.
We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
