UIC Medical Center
Interactive Crisis Training Facility
Private Employee Training
The University of Illinois Chicago will be using a true-to-scale virtual version of their medical center to train employees what to do, and how to behave during a crisis. Using photography and floor plans of the real facility, we are in the process of building and texturing a virtual version that immerses the trainees in a life-like setting. Virtual training has been used for years in the airline industry and now with the aid of virtual worlds like Second Life, they can be useful for any number of subject specific learning environments.
This project is currently under construction on UIC's private island.
