In-browser emulation of multiple technologies to create consistent visualization experience

A machine-readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• receiving source data associated with a graphical object;
• intercepting a call to a function, of an application programming interface associated with a first browser, that executes the 3-D graphical capability three-dimensional (3-D) graphical capability to render a 3-D representation of the graphical object;
• inferring, via at least one processor, an intended first graphical result of the function by semantically analyzing at least one input and at least one output of the function;
• detecting a second browser accessing the source data associated with the graphical object;
• upon determining the second browser does not support the 3-D graphical capability, identifying at least one function for rendering a second graphical result for the second browser, the second graphical result similar to the intended first graphical result;
• generating target data based on the source data;
• and
• calling the at least one function for rendering the second graphical result according to the target data.

A computer system comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory device holding an instruction set executable on the processor to cause the computer system to perform operations comprising:
• receiving source data associated with a graphical object;
• intercepting a call to a function, of an application programming interface associated with a first browser, that executes the 3-D graphical capability three-dimensional (3-D) graphical capability to render a 3-D representation of the graphical object;
• inferring, via at least one processor, an intended first graphical result of the function b semantically analyzing at least one input and at least one output of the function;
• detecting a second browser accessing the source data associated with the graphical object;
• upon determining the second browser does not support the 3-D graphical capability, identifying at least one function for rendering a second graphical result for the second browser, the second graphical result similar to the intended first graphical result;
• generating target data based on the source data;
• and
• calling the at least one function for rendering the second graphical result according to the target data.
