As a step towards something like JavaView, I have been experimenting with JMathTools: http://jmathtools.sourceforge.net It is not as sophisticated as JavaView, but it has fairly nice 2D and 3D viewing capabilities and the 3D is lighter weight than Java3D. I have JMathTools running in SAGEIDE and I have SAGEIDE communicating with SAGE using text and pickled objects (via Jython). I am not able to send SAGE types to the client at this point (only Python types) but perhaps in the future parts of SAGE can be loaded into the client's Jython environment to enable this. I really like the technique of using Jython in the client because its like having a subset of SAGE on the client. Users can easily create GUI widgets with just a few lines of "SAGE" code. Jython can be included in an applet too. Anyway, I have studied sage/plot/plot3d/* in the past but now I think I will study it again to see what kind of SAGE/client communications mechanism it uses.
