Abstract
This invention relates to a computer implemented method and a computer program product for simulating a 3D object in a browser and sharing that simulation with a plurality of other users on other client devices. There is provided an in-browser simulator comprising: a rendering engine: a physics engine; and an application programming interface (API) mapping the functions of the physics engine to the rendering engine. The API is configured to establish a communication link with the other client devices and to share the simulation data with those devices over the established communication link. In one embodiment, multiple client devices can share their simulations contemporaneously and simulations on one client device can interact with simulations on other devices.
