Abstract: Software components are provided for a browser-based 3D modeling system. The software components provide 3D modeling functionality for a user at a client device running a web browser application. At least two software components are provided. An introductory software component allows at least the rendering and interactive viewing of 3D models, and causes a request for an extended software component to be generated in response to receiving via a user interface a user request. An extended software component that is provided in response to the request allows at least the modification of 3D models.

Abstract: When multiple users simultaneously view and/or collaboratively develop a three-dimensional (3D) model using respective independent computing devices, one of the participating users may locally modify a viewpoint of the 3D model, and the viewpoint changes are automatically propagated in real-time to the other users. A viewpoint may correspond to a positioning, an orientation, a zoom degree, an angle, etc. of the 3D model as would be provided by a virtual camera trained on the 3D model. The multiple users may share a common viewpoint of the 3D model in real-time in addition to viewing and/or participating in the generation and modification of the 3D model in real-time. In an embodiment, only one user at a time may be allowed to control the viewpoint modification of the 3D model.

Abstract: Functional extensions are provided for use with a modeling software. The functional extensions provide functionality not otherwise provided by the modeling software. The functional extensions are received from a client device by a server and stored in a database. Thereafter, the server transmits the functional extensions to a second client device, sometimes in response to receiving a request for the functional extension from the second client device. The server may update a user profile to indicate that a functional extension was received from a user operating the client device and, additionally, may transmit the functional extension to the second client device when the server receives an indication that the user is operating the second client device.

Abstract: A first user having a certain set of privileges with respect to an initial three-dimensional (3D) model associates a watermark with the initial 3D model, so that the watermark is displayed whenever the initial 3D model is viewed or edited. A second user having a smaller set of privileges with respect to the initial 3D model is permitted to view, copy and/or modify the initial 3D model, but is not permitted to remove or alter the content of the watermark. The watermark is continuously displayed as the second user works with the initial 3D model. When the second user applies a change to the initial 3D model, an indication of the modifications applied by the second user is generated and stored with the model data corresponding to the updated 3D model.

Abstract: Features of a 3D modeling software application are controlled based on a subscription status of a user. A user having an active subscription status is provided with 3D modeling functions that include functions for creating, inspecting, and modifying 3D models. If the user's subscription status changes to an expired status, the user is provided with at least one of the 3D modeling functions that was provided during the active subscription and is prevented from using at least one other of the 3D modeling functions that was provided during the active subscription.

Abstract: A system and method for implementing the functions of a web-based 3D modeling system partially as a script interpretable by a client browser application and partially as a component executing on a server modeling engine. A client-side script component may execute lightweight modeling system commands while the server-side modeling engine may execute computationally expensive 3D modeling system commands. For example, the script component may be accessed by the client device upon visiting a web page of the modeling service hosted by the web server. The script may include Javascript® instructions for viewing a 3D model in a browser window without installing a browser plug-in or a standalone application on the client device. However, to edit the model, the script component may forward commands and requests to the server via the network and also receive modified model data from the server.

Abstract translation: 一种用于实现基于Web的3D建模系统的功能的系统和方法，其部分地作为可由客户端浏览器应用解释的脚本，并且部分地作为在服务器建模引擎上执行的组件。 客户端脚本组件可以执行轻量级建模系统命令，而服务器端建模引擎可以执行计算上昂贵的3D建模系统命令。 例如，当访问web服务器托管的建模服务的网页时，脚本组件可以被客户端设备访问。 该脚本可能包括用于在浏览器窗口中查看3D模型的Javascript®指令，而无需在客户端设备上安装浏览器插件或独立应用程序。 然而，为了编辑模型，脚本组件可以通过网络将命令和请求转发到服务器，并且还从服务器接收修改的模型数据。

Abstract translation: 当多个用户使用相应的独立计算设备同时查看和/或协同地开发三维（3D）模型时，参与用户之一可以在本地修改3D模型的视点，并且视点改变被实时地自动传播 给其他用户。 视点可以对应于由3D模型训练的虚拟摄像机提供的3D模型的定位，定向，变焦度，角度等。 除了观看和/或参与3D模型的生成和修改之外，多个用户可以实时地共享3D模型的共同观点。 在一个实施例中，可以允许一次只有一个用户来控制3D模型的视点修改。
