Abstract

The interactivity of any real-time 3D experience is key to its effectiveness, and in Flash is one of the best reasons to use Away3D over alternative approaches. If your application isn’t interactive, then it’s likely you have options available to you such as prerendered still images or video that potentially produce better visual results, due to the current processing limits imposed on rendering a real-time 3D scene. Having said that, interactive 3D can produce compelling visual results that are simply unattainable with conventional approaches, thanks to the relative freedom it gives the movement and animation of an interface.
