Is it possible to view an x3d file from a sage worksheet (assuming my browser has the necessary plugin or java support for example)? I saw numerous mentions of x3d support in the source code in plot/plot3d. For example if one generates a 'foo.png', the image is immediately and very conveniently rendered. This doesn't work if I save an x3d file.
The reason I ask is really simple. mayavi2 can produce x3d files via mlab.savefig('foo.x3d') for example (thanks to VTK) and freewrl is able to view these pretty well. I was wondering if there were a mechanism to support this seamlessly on a notebook. This would allow for very nice integrated 3D display. Alternatively, does jmol support display via x3d files? Ondrej has integrated mayavi2 with the notebook but it only produces static images and I'd like to find an easy way to also provide 3D interactivity. Here are a few simple examples from Ondrej's site that I made from some mlab examples:
