Torque3D allows rendering of a browser onto a surface. Amazing graphics for a browser plugin. Better than Unity maybe?

[Blog] iestyn.net: Torque3D plugin with browser surfaces http://bit.ly/2MEnmA

Browser plugins have complete access to the underlying OS so can do pretty much anything a normal app can do… so the fact that it’s in-browser isn’t really that impressive. It’s just a standard Windows app but displayed through a ‘hole’ in a browser.
More impressive would be if it was using already established / widely installed / cross platform web tech such as Flash, Java etc. The web doesn’t need a whole raft more proprietary plugins.
