He is a real, assistive device so that we can all enjoy the Immersive Internet together.
The mission of the Virtual Guidedog project is to ensure that those who unable to use standard interfaces have equal access to the virtual worlds of the Immersive Internet (for example, those who are visually impaired, totally blind, print impaired, or mobility impaired).
Everyone can explore and enjoy the same virtual worlds of the Immersive Internet.
We are glad to welcome you here. Thank you so much for joining us on this adventure into the new world of the Immersive Internet.
Virtual Worlds in the Immersive Internet offer a true sense of community. They are great places to share good times, information, and resources.
We are at the "Stone Soup" stage of our project. In the story of "Stone Soup," the traveler builds a campfire in the marketplace and puts on a big pot of water to boil. He has nothing to eat-so he puts stones in the pot to stir the curiosity of the villagers. One by one, the townspeople come out of their houses and add vegetables, seasonings, and meat until there is a delicious soup for all to share.
With Max, we are identifying what features of the regular Second Life™ client need customizing so that these options can be available to people with various disabilities so that everyone can enjoy virtual worlds together. We've got the water boiling-what can you add to the pot? We welcome what you've got to share!
