Abstract

This paper treats one of the activities of ICER (Innovation Center for Educational Resources) in Kyushu University Library of Kyushu University, Japan. It is the development of educational materials using recent ICT for enhancing the educational efficiency in the university. Especially, this activity focuses on the development of attractive and interactive educational materials using 3D CG. So, the authors have already proposed a framework dedicated for the development of web-based interactive 3D educational materials and introduced a couple of practical educational materials actually developed using the proposed framework. For developing more and more attractive educational materials using Virtual Reality (VR)/Augmented Reality (AR), the authors have added newly functionalities to the framework that allows the development of web-based VR/AR applications. Recently, 360VR images/videos have become popular because 360VR recorders are released from several companies. Therefore, the authors also introduced new functionalities that support 360VR images/videos into the framework. This paper describes the details of the introduced functionalities and also shows a couple of example materials developed using the framework.
