3Di, Inc., a Tokyo-based company has released the first commercially available OpenSim viewer which allows users to engage with 3D virtual worlds using a web browser. Furthermore, you can use it with a touch screen. Check out the demo:


No more client downloads? Hopefully! This is a pretty big step with virtual world technology because more and more people don’t want to bother with downloading a viewer. We are living in a time of cloud computing, and we want everything to be (securely) in the cloud. Web browser support is a small step in continuing to propel this industry forward.
