Ken Rigby (MellaniuM, Tele3dworld) MellaniuM and the CaveUT Project.

MellaniuM and the CAVEUT tele-immersion project Mellanium has started to port its 3D environment Virtual Real World products into the CAVEUT . CAVEUT is an open source freeware project to make tele-immersive projection-based virtual reality affordable and accessible. CAVEUT is available in various versions from simple home made to advanced real-time spatial tracking and stereo graphic imaging. By employing a commercially available 3D engine (UE2-3) richly detailed graphics, high-speed performan… Continue

Ken Rigby (MellaniuM, Tele3dworld) Forward to Tele3DWorld Immersion.

Forward to Tele3DWorld Immersion. As prices of computing hardware falls and software standardization and re-usability becomes common place; like the computers of yesterday, the tele-immersive systems of today will become available to the general public. Along with this is expected to become a powerful drive into tele-immersive application development in all applicable areas. There also exists the possibility for future application of tele-immersion in some new areas like Music Synthesis, Psycho… Continue

What was it really like to live in the ancient Rome; Caput Mundi was the center of the world, with its mad emperors, brutal entertainment and its seductive lifestyles? Through Relive Rome™ , it is expected that 10 million people a year worldwide will experience the city’s past, tele-immersed in t… Continue

Ken Rigby (MellaniuM, Tele3dworld) MellaniuM to create Virtual Real Worlds for Autistic Research.

MellaniuM to create Virtual Real Worlds for Autistic Research. Virtual Real Worlds are to be used to simulate new 3D environments for people in the autistic spectrum. For people with autism, VRWs are way of setting up realistic social situations that might be encountered in their everyday lives. For people who have social, emotional, communicational problems VRWs can enable them to familiarise with a simulated situational environment before actually experiencing in real life. MellaniuM design… Continue

Ken Rigby (MellaniuM, Tele3dworld) MellaniuM to conduct feasibility on 5 Axis Hand-Held Controller.

MellaniuM to conduct feasibility on 5 Axis Hand-Held Controller. Any computer user will tell you just how important it is to use a good controller while experiencing Virtual Real Worlds. While keyboards or two-button mice are sufficient for environments that contain minimal control options, the advent of first-person perspective environments has forced users to look for user friendly options. The 5 Axis controller is the solution to all such problems. Initially it doesn't look very different f… Continue

Ken Rigby (MellaniuM, Tele3dworld) From Arkwright to InterVerzaL.

From Arkwright to InterVerzaL.

Richard Arkwright invented the first automaton i.e., a machine that replaced the human intervention in the manufacturing process; this rendered the human to a machine minder.

InerVerzaLs or Virtual Real Worlds will perform the same to Education, and other similar domains by implementing the 3D to 3D paradigm. The InterVerzaL will make the individual responsible for their education by promoting experience as the prime method using 3D environments.

Ken Rigby (MellaniuM, Tele3dworld) What MellaniuM and the 3D MMO Virtual Real Worlds can do for you.

MMO Virtual Real Worlds (VRWs) are a breakthrough technology that will forever reshape learning, entertainment, and business. You'd have to try very hard to avoid exposure to the virtual real world phenomenon these days. Virtual Real Worlds are going to be the new-big thing. VRW enthusiasts spend many hours a day surrounded by 0's and 1's. It's not out of bounds to ask how much of this virtual stuff is real. After all, we don't want to find ourselves in the position of the chairman of the compan… Continue

Ken Rigby (MellaniuM, Tele3dworld) Virtual Real World Physics


Physics in a Virtual World is all about how objects move and react. It's not just how things look, but how they behave and interact. In many of today's Virtual Real World environments, objects just don't seem to act the way you'd want or expect. Most of the action is limited to pre-scripted or ˜canned' animations.

VRWs have a good visual environment, but one with a missing sense of dynamic realism to mak
