Second Life Projects
Second Life (http://www.secondlife.com)
is an online "universe" with millions of participants that offers
both entertainment and business opportunities. Many major companies and universities
have established Second Life sites.
3DE has expertise in
Second Life building and scripting and owns Embodiment Island, which
is an island in Second Life where we are doing development work.
3DE also maintains an official Orientation Station on
Embodiment Island and has partnered with Linden Labs -- the creators of Second
Life -- to register and educate new members of Second Life. To start exploring
Second Life immediately, click here to
sign up for a free avatar. Go through our tutorials and then explore our
island and Second Life. You may visit the Museum
Of Future Inventions, including therapeutic techniques
in the Advanced Headache Intervention
exhibit.
The SL universe is built
entirely in three dimensions.
Further, the SL browser
and physics engine are very sophisticated and easy to use. Thus, Second Life
provides a way to easily deliver 3D content to individual users, at
conferences, and in stand-alone educational settings.
The Second Life browser is
readily adaptable to full, immersive 3D viewing of the type 3DE delivers. 3DE
will use it to provide content via Second Life that can be experienced in
immersive 3D by users wearing inexpensive polarized glasses, adding
significantly to the impact, value and excitement of Second Life simulations.
