EM840 Virtual World Simulation

As virtual worlds grow in sophistication, business opportunities emerge for creating virtual spaces for collaboration and communication. These virtual spaces are extensible environments that are populated by 3D content and object behavior. Within these simulated scenes, users can work cooperatively to visualize and share their ideas, interact with objects as well as other users and store their content for use at a later date. Students explore the state of the practice as they investigate the simulation techniques, elicit the requirements for a business, scientific, entertainment or educational simulation, and apply 3D modeling techniques to design a solution.
