Video: Augmented Reality Process Modelling Tool

In this video we show a prototype BPMN process modelling tool which uses Augmented Reality techniques to increase the sense of immersion.

The avatar represents a remotely logged in user, and facilitates greater insight into the editing actions of the collaborator than present 2D web-based approaches in collaborative process modelling.

We modified the Second Life client to integrate the ARToolkit in order to support pattern-based AR.

Open Source version of this project will be available soon.

I omitted to include a url link to the SIOP video in my last post.

Last weeks post has now been fixed. The video can be found here as well.

Video: SIOP 2011 Presentation

This is a video of a slide show I prepared for the 2011 annual conference of the Society for Industrial & Organisational Psychology (SIOP).

A session was being run by Richard Landers on Virtual Worlds, and this video was presented in place of my physical presence, as I was unable to attend.

The video presents a short preview of my work, with some (naive) references to Organisational Psychology.

Video: A Day Made of Corning Glass

Corning have the future all sorted out. We will eat, sleep and dream glass surfaces as interactive information displays.

While very interesting, the video of our Corning future has a distinctly sweet cheeriness to it. It also lacks monorails and flying cars, and people in bright orange jumpsuits. Not that I really mind about the jumpsuits.

A tad late, but here is a link to a newspaper article about our successful QUT Bachelor of Games and Interactive Entertainment students. Article highlights some of the great work our graduates are doing on the world stage.

Well done!
