How to display a VRML model with .NET?

I have a request to display VRML models within a .NET application. Does someone know an easy way, maybe with standard .NET components, to achieve this? What are the issues I maybe have to face when representing VRML within an application?

The VRML standard has evolved into X3D (which still supports the old syntax, but pushes an XML-based syntax now. For anyone viewing this thread, it would be better to search for X3D and .Net rather than VRML and .Net. Also, for the web, checkout X3DOM.

I think the main issue is that I hadn't seen anything/anyone using VRML in at least five years. I think you may be better off just finding a VRML->SVG converter. Displaying SVG in a browser is rather well-defined these days.
