Hi John,
Open Scengraph is
sort of the Open Inventor functional clone that has a totally free
license and is a Web3D technology
[hope this assessment is reasonably correct].
For that last part, I think I saw someone doing a web browser plugin
that uses OSG to display objects/environments in a web page, streaming
the content over the net. I can't remember who or find a link though.
Perhaps someone else will be able to refresh my memory.
There have been several attempt and think there is already at least one
commercial product that use OSG inside a web browser plugin.
We have also released our (alpha) release of osg4web that should do
exactly that. The plugin is currently used for a virtual model of Rome
city. see

*os
The website is still under devfelopment but following direction you
should be able to get to the demo (a zip file with firefox, osg and the
plugin all pre-packaged) as well as the CVS
instruction to get the source code (in case someone is interested)
But other than that, OSG can read some Web3D formats, and perhaps more
in the future (if the new OpenVRML library is integrated).
I do have a “pocket universe” with 29 hours per day for those that
have to attend more BOF’s.
If you do not run out of CTK (clone toolkit) license, you could send one
of your Siggraph clone to look at our poster ;-)
I like your sense of humor. :-) If only that were possible... When
making my Siggraph schedule I had a massive 4-way conflict on
Wednesday, and another smaller conflict on Thursday. It was a hard
choice to make. So much to see, and I can't clone myself...
