Is there software??
It is possible to do that with Cabri 3D; I have shown that during my
presentation in Chicago (T3) and you can read the paper in which you have the
explanations:

If you need the files I have presented I can send them. With the plug in of
Cabri 3D you can insert these files in a word document in a powerpoint
presentation or in a web site.
It is also possible to do that in another way with Autograph:

You can see what is possible with it in some turbo-demo online very well
done.
