I have one Web project with those requirements: - Show 3D with animation about a house, room, department….In these houses, there are some button that we can press to control. When we click to it, it will take a command that do something. For example, send a control signal to peripheral via 1 circuit using Infrared transceiver / Receiver… - I have 3D animation from Solid Edge v20 and need up to our website. Control requirements are like above. Could you advice me which technology or tools in Ruby on Rails can do those things? Which documentation we can buy or Weblink can we have to read before working with my project. I highly appreciate your help and best regards, Nguyen Duc Hoang ---

Sounds like something java would be more suited for. David On Fri, Nov 13, 2009 at 9:22 AM, hoangnguyenducbk \< ---

Hi For just because of curiosity asking…Which technology/technologies can we use for the above scenario? Can we use pure ruby? Sijo ---

Totally agree, this problem has nothing to do with server side technologies. – Leonardo M… There’s no place like ~ ---

Look for Java applet, Javascript or Flash technologies. As said it is a client side problem, server technology is independent.

Can we use pure ruby? On server side, I think you can use whatever you want, but for cliente side you will need some plugin to render 3D, depends on what kind of animation you have. I think there are a few projects to make 3D flash animations, but I’m not really updated with that kind odf stuff lately. Basically, what you need on client side, depends on what you want to render.
