Virtual worlds and the built environment (PDF) is a white paper just published by Birmingham, UK-based Daden Ltd, about whom I’ve written before (post). Having explored Second Life very superficially a couple of years ago when Be2camp was in its infancy, I have watched with interest as Dave Burden and Soulla Stylianou have developed strong …

Immersive design collaboration, with IdentityMine

By Paul Wilkinson in AEC, BIM, Collaboration, Extranet/CDE, Functionality, Future, Internet, Mobile, People issues, Web 2.0
27 February 2011
