This presentation from Infinite Metaverse Alliance® (IMA) and Thales Group discusses development of a new open source viewer for the OpenSimulator community focused on improvements in usability, accessibility, and interoperability. Development is driven by inclusive “design thinking” while adding capabilities for the future to address gaps in development aimed at the needs of new users and those with different abilities that may be digitally marginalized.

RACHEL UMOREN - Each year, there are 2.5 million newborn deaths, most of which are preventable. One of the top causes of neonatal mortality is when a baby does not breathe at birth. Newborn resuscitation training reduces newborn deaths, but knowledge and skills from in-person training rapidly decay, sometimes in a matter of weeks after training.

Shocking Title for an OpenSim Conference I know, but let me tell you about my OpenSim Journey. This presentation will showcase the work I’ve done and then try to get answers for the depressing decline in schools and teachers interested in OpenSim collaboration and creation. Let’s talk about OpenSim and please change my mind.

KAE NOVAK & CHRIS LUCHS - Join us for an exploration of the liminal state or in-between state that exists between the metagame and players in games and virtual environments. This liminal state has now extended to transmedia experiences to include the LitRPG genre. This panel will discuss the exploration of the liminal state where a player (learner) can take advantage of the duality that facilitates deep learning and creativity.

Our objective is to illustrate an example use case for the RezMela system.
We will focus on a few built creative scenes that can be shared by students in order to achieve specific gaming and learning goals.

The RezMela platform is primarily designed to address common usability issues that end users face when creating and using virtual worlds. We describe its core components: 1. Modules, 2. Apps, 3. App Sets, 4. Map Sets and 5. a Context sensitive Heads Up Display. We illustrate how these components work synergistically to make virtual environments easier to produce and access.

While the use cases for OpenSimulator learning simulations continue to expand, many of the early types of virtual world educational simulations/activities remain relevant today. Attendees will learn about new uses for OpenSimulator learning simulations (including examples of VR-ready simulations) as well as review examples of proven in-world and out-of-world educational simulations.

Presentation Abstract: This presentation from Infinite Metaverse Alliance® (IMA) and Thales Group discusses progress towards improving open source code used in a self-hosted secure voice solution called EchoVoice. This is an alternative to ViVox which is commonly used for voice communication between avatars in OpenSimulator regions.

The 2 year EU funded project GUINEVERE has come to a close and the final project results are being presented. There are quite a few give-aways for the participants in form of studies on the theory of game design/ gamification and best practice guidelines for teachers. The GUINEVERE server in OpenSim has been the sandbox for the teacher training and several games have been created which are stunning in variety and building and scripting skills.

We have developed a VR tool for training the ability of public speaking. It shows an environment where the speaker confronts a virtual audience that reacts in real time to the speaker’s features, such as voice or gestures, and to his or her biometrics (heart rate or skin conductivity among others).

Creating an in-world event of any size is a challenging endeavor. For busy educators creating even a single activity can be just another hurdle that prevents the wider adoption of virtual worlds for teaching and learning. We need stop reinventing the wheel and start creating content in way that we can share with each other. This presentation will showcase a proof of concept immersive learning activity for any virtual world event that will engage your participants and get them excited about the possibilities

After many years of using VR environments in graduate classes, and teaching others how to create these environments within graduate courses, I will be designing pre-developed VR environments for youth, in K-12 schools and in other youth-oriented organizations. I plan to work with the affordances such as though now coming available through Kitely’s Virtual Private Networks to create a youth-safe interface and a practical registration system, and, very importantly quasi-designed environments that simplifies d

This session features a lively debate on the merits of virtual worlds and virtual reality! Our first presenter, Marie Vans, argues that “VR is the future, and the future is now!” Our second presenter, Bethany Winslow, cautions that “Regardless of what VR platforms are used in the future, designers of effective immersive learning with VR must know the history of virtual worlds in education as well as have some hands-on experience in using them.” The sparing partners will be moderated by Dr. Valerie Hill, th

This talk will summarize my journey and lessons learned while developing a new virtual world product. I will highlight the many opportunities and challenges that will come your way. I believe the avatar based virtual world domain is different from traditional spaces where entrepreneurship is encouraged and we will get a chance to address those.

The 2 kilometre Wapping Tunnel was the first railway tunnel to run under city streets and a major achievement when it opened in 1830. It connected the Liverpool docks to the first modern railway, the Liverpool & Manchester, and took raw materials, notably cotton, to the factories in and around Manchester. This talk examines the potential and problems in using OpenSim to model the construction and operation of this landmark tunnel.

How can an OAR be brought to Google Cardboard. The first steps I did by using the tool “Transforming an OAR to Unity” which is provided by Fumi Iseki, Austin Tate, Daichi Mizumaki und Kohe Suzuki. The tool was presented by Austin Tate in OSCC18.
The transformation, I did it by using Ubuntu Unix, turns the OAR content into DAE files which I imported to Unity. Then I embedded the functions that Google provides for Cardboard development with Unity. For the next step watch the Presentation.

Opensimulator has many faces. One is the ability to save the world. Opensimulator runs everywhere. Even on the Moon and on Mars and in THE WRONG router. Recently the Brain of Art was transferred to Mars. This talk shall be taken very seriously as it focuses on THE FAKED VR, an opensim application presented first at THE WRONG Biennale, the biggest digital art show in the world, which started on November 1, 2019.
The OSCC grid has only recently upgraded to an up-to-date version of OpenSim 0.9.1 just in time for this conference. This is good news, but what exactly is good about it? This talk will list a bunch of the bugs that have been fixed since OpenSim 0.8.2. This is intended to be a fun performance talk were, for each slide we will stop and demonstrate a scripted object that works better in the latest versions of OpenSim. So there will be cannon firing, painting in the air with prims, throwing tomatoes at the aud
