three.js

Javascript 3D Engine

Flattr this

The aim of this project is to create a lightweight 3D engine with a very low level of abstraction (aka for dummies). Currently there is no documentation available but feel free to use the examples as a reference and/or read the source code. However, be aware that the API may change from revision to revision breaking compatibility.

The engine can render using <canvas>, <svg> and WebGL.

More info...

Other <canvas> based engines: pre3d, pvjs, jsgl, k3d, ... WebGL based: WebGLU, GLGE, C3DL, Copperlicht, SpiderGL, SceneJS, ...

Examples

Usage

Download the minified library and include it in your html.

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/Three.js"></script>

This code creates a camera, then creates a scene object, adds a bunch of random particles in it, creates a <canvas> renderer and adds its viewport in the document.body element.

<script type="text/javascript">

	var camera, scene, renderer;

	init();
	setInterval( loop, 1000 / 60 );

	function init() {

		camera = new THREE.Camera( 75, window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight, 1, 10000 );
		camera.position.z = 1000;

		scene = new THREE.Scene();

		for (var i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {

			var particle = new THREE.Particle( new THREE.ParticleCircleMaterial( { color: Math.random() * 0x808008 + 0x808080 } ) );
			particle.position.x = Math.random() * 2000 - 1000;
			particle.position.y = Math.random() * 2000 - 1000;
			particle.position.z = Math.random() * 2000 - 1000;
			particle.scale.x = particle.scale.y = Math.random() * 10 + 5;
			scene.addObject( particle );

		}

		renderer = new THREE.CanvasRenderer();
		renderer.setSize( window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight );

		document.body.appendChild( renderer.domElement );

	}

	function loop() {

		renderer.render( scene, camera );

	}

</script>
