Interactive 3D refers to 3D experiences that run on any platform and allow users the ability to access and interact with other 3D and 2D (text, video, etc.) data. Usually these enviroments allow users to freely navigate the 3D space.
Web3D was initially the idea to fully display and navigate Web sites using 3D. By extension, the term now refers to all interactive 3D content which are embedded into web pages html, and that we can see through a web browser.
Augmented reality (AR) is a live direct or indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented (or supplemented) by computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data. As a result, the technology functions by enhancing one’s current perception of reality.
Virtual reality (VR), is a computer-simulated environment that can simulate physical presence in places in the real world or imagined worlds. Virtual reality is often used to describe a wide variety of applications commonly associated with immersive, highly visual, 3D environments.
Any software or hardware that allows a user to interact with a computer. A keyboard and mouse, game pads, gesture controllers, and command-line interpreters are examples of Human Computer Interfaces.
