Content
JavaScript, HTML, CSS, ...
JavaScript Middleware
CSS
JavaScript HTML5
Browser provides WebGL
3D engine alongside other HTML5
technologies - no plug-in required
OS Provided Drivers WebGL uses OpenGL ES 2.0 or
Angle for OpenGL ES 2.0 over DX9
Content downloaded
from the Web
Middleware provides accessibility
for non-expert programmers e.g. three.js library
Low-level APIs provide
a powerful foundation
for a rich JavaScript
middleware ecosystem
Reliable WebGL
relies on work by
both GPU and
Browser Vendors
->
Khronos has the
right membership
to enable that
cooperation
WebGL Ecosystem

Pervasive WebGL •WebGL on EVERY major desktop and mobile browser •Portable (NO source change) 3D applications are possible for the first time

What happens next?
…but emerging mobile use cases will
demand qualitative improvements in
rendering fidelity, latency, and power
efficiency
OpenGL and OpenGL ES are proven,
highly successful technologiesthat will
continue to evolve…

What’s a Khronos Chapter and does it how work?
• Khronos Chapter is:
- A local Khronos APIs related developer community;
- A platform to communicate and share;
- An opportunity to meet Khronos member companies and get the latest updates;
- A chance to social with other developers.
• How it works?
- The Chapter events will be held under the name of Khronos and get support from
us;
- A volunteering Chapter leader will drive the local chapter;
- You may have meetup, demo, talk, competition, workshop and even cross-cities
events.
