Class 5: Open Wonderland Video

Adding resources to a shared virtual screen

 Cone of silence

Built-in ability to record video

Open Wonderland basically allows you to hold meetings and such in a virtual environment which is interactive and allows multiple users to mess around with all its features at once. It's really easy to drag-and-drop any type of resource into the world, be it a powerpoint, image, or 3d model for a bench. There's an in-world browser built-in, and all this leads to various ways to give presentations and brainstorm as a group.


There are also many privacy and security features built in, such as a cone of silence and permissions which restrict certain groups from being able to see/interact with the world in its entirety. Add along to that the ability to dial calls, have private chats with them, "take the person with you" and being able to leave them somewhere else, and recording of both audio and video. Open Wonderland does a lot of neat things which enhance the virtual experience.
