Installing on the Client Computer

Section Overview

In most configurations, you do not need to install a viewer on a client computer because you can perform all the tasks on a host computer. However, if you have very large models that consume considerable computational resources, you might want to use a client computer to run and view the virtual world.

The client computer must have a VRML97 plug-in with External Authoring Interface (EAI) support. This means that your client computer must be a PC platform with the Blaxxun Contact plug-in. Only the Blaxxun Contact software is supported.

Installing a VRML Plug-In (Windows) describes how to install the Blaxxun Contact VRML plug-in on a computer running Windows.

Installing a VRML Plug-In (Windows)

If you want to view a virtual world on a client computer, you need to use a Web browser with a VRML plug-in.

The Blaxxun Contact plug-in is provided with the Simulink 3D Animation software, but you cannot install the Blaxxun Contact plug-in Version 4.4 on a client computer with the MathWorks installer if you do not have this plug-in installed.
