However, the studentpsilas avatar of the VRML plugin in Internet Explorer can not do anything without walking. This article presents an application and wants to implement the 3D virtual Avatar interaction gestures. The first, we introduce what is a virtual 3D avatar. In the following content, we build a virtual museum of history and culture as a multi-user virtual learning environment and introduce how to make a virtual 3D avatar with many interactive gestures. Finally, the latest advances in the creation of an avatar interaction server that users can share 3D interactive gestures. This has made the design of a more interactive realistic world where the student can interact with other users and share his emotions.
