To shorten the long story:
Can I upload .vrmlto Silverlight and display a 3D scene?
Now some more background information on why I want to do this. I would like to do the following setup:
- Make some lengthy calculations on the server
- Mark 3d scene with mayavi
- export it as a file
.vrml. - Transfer it to Silverlight-Client
- Display 3d scene in Silverlight
- Allows the user to interact with this scene, i.e. scale, pan, rotate, ...
I expected this to be easy since the latest versions of Silverlight ship with XNA, but my research, both on Google and on SO, has not given me any good advice. It would be great if someone could point me in the right direction, any links to tutorials, libraries or code snippets would be appreciated.
As alternative file formats, I could also create, according to the Mayavi documentation
- rib (renderman)
- oogl (geomview)
- iv (OpenInventor)
- obj (wavefront)
