OpenWorm Browser¶
A WebGL based C. elegans body browser implemented as part of the OpenWorm project.
The 3D C. elegans neurons are provided by the VirtualWorm project. We are using the open-3d-viewer as WebGl engine.

The OpenWorm Browser can be accessed here.
The source code for this project can be found here.
Future Visualization
The next-generation visualization is specified by DD014: Dynamic Visualization Architecture, which plans a Trame-based viewer evolving toward WormSim 2.0 — a public Three.js + WebGPU site at wormsim.openworm.org. The WormBrowser at browser.openworm.org will continue to be maintained until WormSim 2.0 achieves full feature parity (see DD014 deployment timeline).
