Sphere 3D Timeline

What is Sphere 3D Timeline?

Sphere 3D Timeline is a scroll-driven storytelling component that maps your milestones onto a rotating 3D sphere. As the viewer scrolls, a glowing progress line spirals across the globe surface, activating crystal milestone nodes that reveal rich content cards with text, images, and video. Ideal for company histories, product roadmaps, portfolio timelines, and case study narratives.

Core Features

• Scroll-animated progress line that wraps around a 3D sphere with proper depth occlusion — the line visibly disappears behind the globe and re-emerges on the other side

• Crystal milestone nodes with faceted glass styling, pulse animations, and contextual glow effects that activate as the progress line reaches them

• Glassmorphic content cards with connector lines, supporting title, date, category, description, responsive images, and autoplay video

• Four curated color themes — White, Sapphire, Gold, and Rose — with adjustable glow intensity and node styling

• Perspective-projected sphere with latitude/longitude grid lines, rim lighting, inner radiance, and specular highlights for a premium 3D look
