At my workplace (University of Houston, dept. of Health and Human Performance) Clojure is our primary language for interacting with our virtual world presence in Second Life. We have an automated lesson path building system currently in production, and several other projects in various states.
automated lesson path building system - user (currently it's too scratchy to turn the profs loose on this, so I always use it) draws a learning path out in a 2D swing based clojure app. It compiles a set of 'prims' that fill the needed shapes (a sort of variation on the knapsack problem, where you also get a small 'rubber' block that can fill in small spaces, but it's an optimal packing problem), creates the textures, controls a C# robot (no java libs for that task) to upload the textures, and sends commands to a robot in-world to do the actual build. Nutrition Goggles system - What I should be doing today, if I weren't noodling around in Clojure 8cD (OK, in theory the injectable agent system I'm doing today should be usable for all these projects) This is a HUD (tool that attaches to the users screen as additional UI), when they look at a food item in the virtual environment it shows the nutrition data. They also can enter nutrition data the same way. Back end in clojure. Summoner monitor system - I'm supposed to write this, I'd dearly love to get there, as it's a tool that alerts me that I'm needed in world to help a student. (currently I depend on my email alerter, which is suboptimal) Configurable teleporting sign system - a web app that lets users set up teleporters around the campus sim, while retaining some control over the appearance of the central entry area. Might not end up being in clojure, I might do this totally in world. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
