A Life-Like Agent Interface System with Second Life Avatars on the OpenSimulator Server
This paper describes a design of a life-like agent interface system with Second Life avatars on a 3D virtual world. We have implemented our prototype system on the OpenSimulator server, instead of the Linden Lab’s Second Life server. It is open source and a Second Life official viewer can connect it. Although it is still an alpha version and has various problems at present, it has many advantag...
متن کاملGlobal Lab: an Interaction, Simulation, and Experimentation Platform based on ”Second Life” and ”OpenSimulator”
In this paper we describe a novel platform for virtual worlds called Global Lab. Through example applications, we demonstrate the capabilities of this platform for ubiquitous simulation and experimentation for sensor-based systems. Furthermore, with multimedia information representation and support for bi-directional communication real and virtual devices are connected in the example of a parti...
متن کاملTowards a virtual archaeology
There is a long tradition of recording archaeological contexts. Early accounts are typically a bald statement of the kind: 'a Roman floor was found.' Later, longer textual descriptions appear. The correctness and truth of the observation or interpretation was confirmed by the personal standing of the reporter (cf. Hodder 1989). The more cautious added weight to their view by including another e...
متن کاملSecond Life Physics: Virtual, real, or surreal?
Science teaching detached itself from reality and became restricted to the classrooms and textbooks with their overreliance on standardized and repetitive exercises, while students keep their own alternative conceptions. Papert, displeased with this inefficient learning process as early as 1980, championed physics microworlds, where students could experience a variety of laws of motion, from Ar...
متن کاملVirtual Crime: Forensic Artefacts from Second Life
Second Life is an online virtual environment which is populated by users from all over the world. The virtual environment is split into a variety of public and private areas; these provide avatars with a chance to explore a wide range of environments and interact with other users. There is also an opportunity for users to create personalised environments; organisations such as the BCS have crea...
