Abstract

A method includes providing a first Web page including an embedded viewer configured to render a three-dimensional (3D) object data model representing an object to present a first 3D view of the object. The embedded viewer can receive input to change the first 3D view of the object to a second 3D view of the object. The method includes receiving a request to provide the second 3D view of the object. The method includes generating a first uniform resource identifier (URI) that includes view information. The view information is a part of the URI and represents a plurality of rendered features of the second 3D view. The method includes providing, in response to receiving a request based on the first URI, a second Web page including an embedded viewer configured to render the 3D object data model according to the view information to present the second 3D view.
