Location Based Learning Games and Serious Virtual Worlds

We're mobile tomorrow with Celine delivering a speech at the University of Bristol on The Value of Location Based Games for Learning where she will be highlighting her Dockers Dilemma game and research (she blogs here) and Dick and I will be in Coventry discussing the new Serious Games Institute and we will be attending a demo on a cool tool that can map indoor facilities using lasers and create 3D models out of them. This gives us some great application ideas for handheld walkthroughs with some advanced handheld 3D gear we are working with and also for integration with Forterra Systems OLIVE Virtual World platform for more realistic, faster importing of buildings for training purposes (fire, security, safety, etc.).
Speaking of Serious Virtual Worlds, Dick has started to blog here.
