Abstract :
This paper describes a Web-based retrieval system for 3D polygonal models. Feature descriptors of 3D polygonal model are reduced by feature descriptor grouping techniques. This enables fast queries of 3D polygonal models from the databases. Also, the system can retrieve colors from material color databases for 3D polygonal models reflecting users´ preferences. The system can display 3D models queried to standard Web browsers interactively. Our preliminary experimental result showed good recall and precision for the retrieval test
