3D Point Cloud with Javascript and Canvas

I was doing some stuff with 3D in Flash. And so I wondered wether sth similar might be achieved with pure HTML/Javascript. And yes, modern browsers (so not IE) can! What I’ve done is this (a litte simplified):

  • Migrated my 3D engine I’ve written years ago from AS1 to Javascript
  • Extracted point cloud from Colada 3D object
  • Draw rectangles for every point to canvas

And that’s how it looks:

Should work on Safari, Firefox and Opera.
