Meet VRML: How People Made VR Websites in the 90s

One of the big tech stories of 2024 was the rebirth of virtual reality. Home hardware from HTC, Oculus, Sony, and even Google brought 3D immersion to a whole new audience, and we're seeing some seriously cool software being made to take advantage of it. If you've spent any time with programs like Tilt Brush you're aware of how neat this stuff is going to get. But this isn't virtual reality's first rodeo. In the 1990s, despite significantly worse technology, designers tried to make VR games, applications, and even Web pages. You read that right: Web pages. A whole markup language was written to turn browsing into a 3D, first-person experience. It was called VRML, and we're going to tell you all about it. The first International Conference on the World Wide Web in 1994 was a pivotal moment in the development of the modern Internet. Computer scientists from all over the world came to Geneva to lay the groundwork for this exciting new medium. One of those men was Dave Raggett, a leading hand in the development of much of the modern Internet protocol. While the other computer scientists at the conference were occupied with transfer protocols and naming conventions, Raggett looked to push the new world closer to the one we knew. Working from a heated email discussion, he wrote out the specification for the first version of a set of instructions for representing 3D spaces in a Web browser.
