The 3D Internet refers to a currently disparate but rapidly converging set of 3D technologies used for visualizing 3D information on the web. This convergence promises to provide a new set of collaborative tools with application in collaborative visualization, education, training and scientific discovery. As part of the Supercomputing Conference this year working with supporters in the community we have made available a virtual world based on the open source package OpenSim. You will find instructions for accessing this environment and packages for extending the environment into your facility at this link. We encourage you to join ScienceSim and experiment with new uses.
