Will it scale?

I like the idea of drawing 3D things with svg.

I did that too for construction site tracking. http://goswin.at/emd/ Did you test how well it scales? How many polygons can it draw and spin smoothly on a modern PC before I need to switch to WebGL?

Hi! SVG makes it easier to handle events on DOM components, but I did not test to extreme polygon counts.

Based on your link above, I imagine you'd draw just one model instead of 8 or so different perspectives, but it may be largely a test to see if you can draw a sheet of.. glass? metal panels? and rotate it around. The rendering loop could be scheduled to sync at whatever framerate you need and to debounce any calls for calculations
