This volume contains the papers accepted for the Web3D 2006 Symposium on 3D Web Technologies, which was held for the first time on the East Coast, in Columbia, Maryland. The papers cover a wide range of 3D web related topics, from behavior and semantics to applications in architecture and medicine, as well as evolving technologies such as 3D graphics on mobile devices. This year, 26 paper submissions were received and 17 papers were accepted (a 35% rejection rate). In addition to 14 regular papers, this year we have included 3 short papers describing new and interesting research in progress.The Web3D Consortium and the Web3D community, among other activities, promote the use of international standards for 3D graphics on the WWW and in other 3D environments. In particular, the year since the last Web3D Symposium was marked by refinements to the eXtensible 3D (X3D) standard Amendment 1 specification. Amendment 1 was submitted to the International Organization for Standards (ISO) while work continues on the Amendment 2 specification. Moreover, the Web3D Consortium was very active in broadening the participation of industry, academia, and other players. An Interchange Profile Conformance Testing Suite was created to, among other things, allow browsers that pass the conformance tests to claim X3D Interchange compliance and use the X3D trademark.

Abstract
This volume contains the papers accepted for the Web3D 2006 Symposium on 3D Web Technologies, which was held for the first time on the East Coast, in Columbia, Maryland. The papers cover a wide range of 3D web related topics, from behavior and semantics to applications in architecture and medicine, as well as evolving technologies such as 3D graphics on mobile devices. This year, 26 paper submissions were received and 17 papers were accepted (a 35% rejection rate). In addition to 14 regular papers, this year we have included 3 short papers describing new and interesting research in progress.The Web3D Consortium and the Web3D community, among other activities, promote the use of international standards for 3D graphics on the WWW and in other 3D environments. In particular, the year since the last Web3D Symposium was marked by refinements to the eXtensible 3D (X3D) standard Amendment 1 specification. Amendment 1 was submitted to the International Organization for Standards (ISO) while work continues on the Amendment 2 specification.
