Scope
This document presents the specification for a modeling language, VoxML, for the visualizations of concepts and actions denoted by natural language expressions in 3-dimensions.
Purpose
This document normalizes the specification for a modeling language for constructing 3D (threedimensional) visualizations of concepts denoted by natural language expressions. This language, VoxML (Visual Object Concept Modeling Language), is to be used as the platform for creating multimodal semantic simulations in the context of human-computer and human-robot communication. VoxML encodes semantic knowledge of real-world objects represented as 3D models, and of events and attributes related to and enacted over these objects. VoxML is intended to overcome the limitations of existing 3D visual markup languages by allowing for the encoding of a broad range of semantic knowledge that can be exploited by a variety of systems and platforms, leading to multimodal simulations of real-world scenarios using conceptual objects that represent their semantic values.
