    Do 3-D interfaces cause headaches? Potential trouble for immersive visuals as 3-D interfaces require unnatural eye movements which may result in visually induced motion sickness. More popcorn please.

    I didn't end up with any ill effects, but I noticed that your inability to focus on objects on different levels of the 3D plane is unnerving. Often there would be interesting flora in the foreground, and because it's in 3D, you want to look at it but you can't focus your eyes on it.

  • that alters the very meaning of going to the movies. But let's go out on a limb and predict that it'll at least give 3-D a boost.
  • But “Avatar” may have finally changed the way moviemakers and moviegoers think about the technology.

  • After Second Life took the world by storm in 2005 and 2006, introducing many to a 3D environment in which they could create nearly anything they wanted, there hasn't been a major next step forward.
  • One could argue that virtual worlds have even taken a technological step backward, as most of the energy in the space these days is being put into building 2D Flash worlds for kids, or Facebook games played by the masses. It's big business, but hardly cutting edge.
  • The biggest danger at the moment for those who want to see rich, 3D virtual worlds take off right away is the massive popularity of social networks like Facebook and Twitter.

    What i found most interesting about this article was the idea that the popularity of Facebook games has caused a "technological step backward"

    This is an interesting example of a video game targeting mental health. The designers created a 3D fantasy world with different realms in which players learn mental behavioral techniques used to combat depression. The game was found to be effective in reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression in teens with mild to moderate depression.
  • Allison Browne on 01 May 12
     
    Such a great idea. In rural areas, the lack of mental health practitioners is a serious problem so we reserve referrals for children who are in dire circumstances. Children with moderate or mild depression almost never get services. This game has great potential!

    That's such an excellent point Allison!

  • Federation of American Scientists has developed a first-person shooter-inspired cellular biology curriculum. Gamers explore the fully-interactive 3D world of an ill patient and assist the immune system in fighting back a bacterial infection.
  • “The amount of detail about proteins, chemical signals and gene regulation that these 15-year-olds were devouring was amazing. Their questions were insightful. I felt like I was having a discussion with scientist colleagues,”
