The three main components of the browser are:
Parser, Scene Graph, and Audio/Visual Presentation.
  • The Parser component reads the VRML file and creates a Scene Graph.
  • The Scene Graph component consists of a Transform Hierarchy (the nodes) and a ROUTE Graph (the connections between nodes).
  • The Scene Graph also includes an Execution Engine that processes events, reads and edits the ROUTE Graph, and makes changes to the Transform Hierarchy (nodes).
