Step into the third dimension with Harris Virtual World

Virtual reality? Avatars? Flying to the conference centre? Tea time on the ceiling?

Visitors to the brand new Harris Virtual World are quick to say that this novel use of online gaming technology may sound far fetched, feels a little unnerving at first but is definitely very very clever.

“It sounded gimmicky on paper and I had no idea what I was letting myself into, but at the end of the experience you feel like you’ve met up with the people you’re talking to” said one suitably sceptical journalist who logged on for a visit. “It’s like something out of Star Trek and is a definite alternative to powerpoint and conference calls”.

Based on the Immersive Workspaces Solution and hosted on the Managed Second Life Platform, the Harris Virtual World is an online space, an extension of the Harris workplace, a virtual meeting room in a nutshell, to help customers and Harris staff engage with each other in a dynamic way.
