A Search Engine for Polygonal Models to Support Development of 3D E-Learning Applications

We have developed a web-based search engine for 3D polygonal models. These days, the number of web sites using Web 3D technology is increasing. The development of our search engine can be useful for people who are building 3D e-learning environments, because 3D polygonal models can be quickly retrieved based on similarity of shapes or on certain keywords. Keywords Web 3D, Retrieval, Multimedia, Database, Polygon, e-learning, VRML
