| Abstract | The development of shape repositories and 3D databases rises the need of online visualization of 3D objects. The main issue with the remote visualization of large meshes is the transfer latency of the geometric information. The remote viewer requires the transfer of all polygons before allowing object's manipulation. To avoid this latency problem, an approach is to send several levels of details of the same object so that lighter versions can be displayed sooner and replaced with more detailed version later on. This strategy requires more bandwidth, implies abruptly changes in object aspect as the geometry refines as well as a non negligible precomputing time. Since the appearance of a 3D model is more influenced by its normal field than its geometry, we propose a framework in which the object's LOD is replaced with a single simplified mesh with a LOD of appearance. By using Appearance Preserving Octree-Textures (APO), this appearance LOD is encoded in a unique texture, and the details are progressively downloaded when they are needed. Our APO-based framework achieves a nearly immediate object rendering while details are transmitted and smoothly added to the texture. Scenes keep a low geometry complexity while being displayed at interactive framerate with a maximum of visual details, leading to a better visual quality over bandwith ratio than pure geometric LOD schemes. Our implementation is platform independent, as it uses JOGL and runs on a simple web browser. Furthermore the framework doesn't require processing on the server side during the client rendering. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
