JavaView is a 3D geometry viewer and a geometric software library written in Java, see www.javaview.de. It allows to include 2D, 3D and higher-dimensional geometries in any HTML document, and to present interactive geometry experiments on the internet. JavaView also runs as a standalone software under MS-Windows, Unix and other systems, and it can be integrated as a 3D viewer with mathematical software packages like Mathematica and Maple.
