Modern experiments in nuclear physics last for years and require enormous human and energyresources. There are various methods for monitoring engineering, network and computer systems ofthe experiment. As a rule, they have a common name for all - the Event Display and include a wholerange of monitoring and control systems. The operator must receive comprehensive information aboutthe course of the experiment in an understandable and intuitive form. The ability to obtain informationin three-dimensional form that most fully reflects real physical processes is one of the current trends inexperimental nuclear physics. In this work, a prototype of the Event Display was created using a highlevel language - JavaScript, built into any standard Internet browser. Modern technologies make itpossible not to take into account the platform and type of operating system on which the Internetbrowser is launched. A program written in JavaScript will execute in the same way on every platform,including mobile devices with Internet access. The work was carried out for the MPD (Multi-PurposeDetector) detector at the NICA (Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility) accelerator complex at theJoint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR, Dubna, Russia).
