Continual Evolution of this Most Popular 3D Format

X3D, the successor to VRML, is the open ISO standard for 3D that is supported by many vendors. It is a very powerful standard with a very intuitive data structure. It continues to evolve into new areas under the guidance of the Web3D Consortium (www.web3d.org). It provides a flexible run-time environment for any 3D application.
