Transcript Virtual Meetings

Virtual Meetings
February 2010
Purpose
• We are piloting virtual meetings to mitigate
the time to conventional meetings.
– We will enjoy greater flexibility with a virtual
venue.
– We can bring distinguished speakers at no cost.
• We can gain expertise in the virtual
technology that is an evolving business area
for areas like immersive training, simulations
and visualization.
Virtual Venue
• Global Reach
• Facilities exist, convenient to set up and
attend
• Advantage over telecon
– Spatial recognition/cues
– Relate , engage, participate, demo IMMERSION
– Voice, chat and messaging
– 3Dexplore, immersive training
– Bring simulation into meeting space

Recent Lessons
from Immersive Training
• Benefits (Karen Cooper, NAWC)
– Engagement
– Co-presence
– Psychological engagement
• Cost Effective Progression (Michael Macedonia, SAIC)
– Level 1 – passive
– Level 2 – limited participation
– Level 3 – complex participation
– Level 4 – real-time participation
Audience
