Simulations and Training (Live in Second Life)**
 * 3.2 – Using Robotic Avatars in Second Life

Alex Heiphetz, Svetlana Liberman, DeltaL Training Tom Werner, Brandon Hall Research Thursday, September 25, 1:15 pm – 2:30 pm

Second Life (SL) is a widely-available, free for users, 3D, immersive platform already used by many companies for employee training, placement and new hire orientation. Introduction of robotic avatars technology and the use of these robots in training simulations make SL a truly asynchronous training tool. Now trainees can use training simulations independently from the instructor. Use of secure “off-Second-Life” databases located on company’s network, allows, at the same time, full control over a trainee’s work and progress. This session will be conducted live in Second Life.
