FWIW the vfx industry is starting to settle on a single format (again) - this might make more sense to implement than something more xml/web-ish... https://graphics.pixar.com/usd/docs/index.html

USD couldn't be more different than X3D. It's an industrial-strength standard for sharing massive movie-scale assets between commercial editing suites and production tools. X3D is lighter weight markup for defining simple 3D scenes that can be viewed in a web browser with a little interactivity.

How does it work? Does it just render a scene from server-side?
