Photorealistic scenes can be effective tools for immersive 3D journalism, but streaming these models to a variety of devices and connection speeds can be challenging.
In our effort to simplify the creation and sharing of detailed photogrammetry-based stories, we have developed an open-source library that adds 3D Tiles support to the popular 3D web framework three.js. Additionally, we have created a web component that makes it easy to load these models into A-Frame scenes, allowing you to view them in virtual reality.
