Glossy reflections

Is is possible to have realtime blurred/glossy reflections in Blend4Web? (Example image attached)

Perhaps it's possible to progressively down sample the existing mirror reflections in blend4web, causing them to look blurred?

For now it's not possible with realtime reflections. But you can prepear several cubemaps for each object, some of them can be blurred some of them not, then you can dynamicaly change from one cube map to another in node material using API, Animation or Logic Nodes.
Blend4web and that kind of thing.

if there is not a possibility of blurry reflection then I guess there is also no reflection glow possible.

I saw this and it looks cool! how to achieve this in blend4web?

You can achieve this effect using special Blend4Web Glow Output node and connect it with specular output from a Material node.
Blend4web and that kind of thing.

I corrected a little your example. For better understanding: you was need to use Extended Material in your node material to get reflection, your Material not reflected at all because of uding simple Material node. So I just connected Color output to Glow input and it began to work.
Here's your exmaple
Blend4web and that kind of thing.

Yeh now got it..! Thx. I didnt know that the 'extended material' under standard input works instead of under 'blend4web' menu.

Thx.
