Faster Maintenance with Augmented Reality - 0 views

    Article discusses a MIT/Columbia project currently underway that uses AR systems to assist Marines during difficult repairs to weapons systems and vehicles. The test found that mechanics could perform the repairs in half the time when using AR assistance versus the more traditional text-based repair manual. I would be very interested in seeing how more AR in classroom seetings in physics and math might accelerate learning.

    Learn about the gamification of the university experience at RIT's School of Interactive Games & Media. I learned about this at a MIT talk on Civic Games, which was written up here: http://civic.mit.edu/blog/mstem/event-writeup-civic-games. They only really touched on motivation, autonomy, and rewards, but the transcript is also worth checking out for the names of people, books, and sites mentioned.

How 'Avatar' may predict the future of virtual worlds | Geek Gestalt - CNET News - 0 views

  • 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.
