Web-based Collaborative Assembly Planning

With the wide application of the Internet and rapid development of communication technology, the Web-based collaborative CAD technology became one focus of current CAD research. After investigating the state-of-the-art of collaborative CAD technology and the computer aid assembly plane, the paper proposes a new collaborative method for assembly planning in Internet environment. 3D graphics's rendering, operation and Web based Collaborative work environment are discussed. A Web-based Collaborative Assembly Planning System (WebCAPS) has been implemented.
