Java3d is essentially its own library, it started off doing its own direct OpenGL or directx rendering and eventually moved to using jogl on the backend for that part. You can't really mix and match the jogl and java3d pieces. While in the long term it's probably better to move away from canvas3d and take a render able from jogl, this would be a massive break of the java3d API and probably more trouble than it's worth for existing users.
