« Real-world simulations like these are perfectly suited to Nintendo’s Wiimote, says MIT research fellow David E. Stone. In fact, he claims the motion-sensitive controller is « one of the most significant technology breakthroughs in the history of computer science. » Say what? For Stone, the Wiimote is the key to building realistic training simulators within the virtual world of Second Life. He is helping companies and universities do that through his WorldWired consultancy. Clients include a company interested in training workers for its power plants, a manufacturer of medical devices and pest-control firm Orkin. (Wired) »
