“…All these systems utilize multimodality to overcome the static constraints of the environment by dynamically changing the user's perception of the environment through the use of multimedia techniques and changing the user's physical location through suggestions of where to go next. While HIPS and HyperAudio do not include life-like interface character, C-MAP, GUIDE, and PEACH (Isbister and Doyle 1999), the system by Almeida and Yokoi (2003), and the SAGRES Virtual Museum (Bertolleti, Moraes, and da Rocha Costa 2001). Evaluations of these systems reveal that the characters' human-like behavior offers users a more friendly interaction interface and increases the suspension of disbelief in users, at the same time helping them to learn and encourage them to explore for more information.…”

This paper presents details ofthe specification, design and functionality of the Virtual UNR Campus software (in short, VCampus), an interactive virtual environment that allows users to explore the 3D representation of the University ofNevada, Reno. VCampus provides a realistic rendering of the university and allows users to obtain useful information such as building names and directories, university historical and statistical data, events scheduled to take place on campus, and area maps centered on specified locations. The users can navigate through the 3D representation of the campus by adopting either a first or a third person view and by selecting either a walking or a flying exploration mode. Various graphical objects can be accessed in the environment to obtain orientation data and general information, a guided tour is available, and communication and collaboration with peers is supported by a multi-user, multi-character real-time interaction facility. The paper also includes a comparison of VCampus with similar projects, a discussion of the environment's advantages and limitations, and a set of pointers tofuture research and development work.
