The only browser that support EAI is currently Cosmoplayer PC version. I think you should write a Java program that receives the eventOut of a big proximitysensor, and based on the position of the viewer, add nodes to the scene. I have done the similra things and it works in PC version. As far as I now, SGI version doesn't support EAI yet. Mohsen Mohsen Kahani | moka@st.elec.uow.edu.au Elec. & Comp. Eng.
