Abstract

In this paper, an approach to on-demand generation of interactive 3D content based on queries to semantic meta-scenes is proposed. Meta-scenes are generalized content representations, which may be queried by different content consumers to create customized 3D scenes. The use of the semantic web techniques enables representation of content elements and queries at various levels of abstraction, using concepts related to 3D modeling in general and concepts specific to a particular application or application domain.
