What is Cosmo Player?
Cosmo Player is the VRML browser from Cosmo Software. Cosmo Player runs in your web browser as a plug-in, and lets you navigate and manipulate 3D worlds and objects created using the VRML97 language. VRML stands for “Virtual Reality Modeling Language,” and is a file format for describing interactive 3D objects and worlds. It’s used for a wide variety of applications such as engineering and scientific visualization, multimedia presentations, entertainment and educational titles, web pages, and shared virtual worlds. The current revision of the VRML standard is called VRML97 (its official name is “International Standard ISO/IEC 14772-1:1997”). The full specification is available at http://www.vrml.org/Specifications/VRML97. VRML97 was known as “VRML 2.0” while it was a draft international standard; “VRML 1.0” is a much older version of the standard, which could only describe static, non-interactive worlds. Cosmo Player displays VRML 1.0 worlds by internally converting them to VRML97 form
