OZ Virtual was a 3D world viewer created by OZ Interactive that enabled real-time collaboration communications in shared spaces on the Internet with a strong focus on creative content production.
[1][2] The viewer supported the Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML 2.0) a standard for creating and experiencing virtual reality worlds on the Internet.
It came with an avatar editor that allowed the user to select from a set of pre-defined avatars with body movements and modify their appearance.
Users could communicate using voice chat using low bandwidth codecs supplied by Voxware.
[3][4] One of the features of this VRML browser was that anyone browsing a given URL could see and interact with any other users visiting the same URL at the same time,[5][6] thus making it an instantaneous shared virtual space.
