Quakequest
A virtual world for engineering education, discovery and collaboration
In the near future, NEES will provide virtual conferencing and design tools for learning with one's peers. Currently in a closed Beta phase, the software is being tested with the 2010 REU program participants.
The virtual conferencing tools provide a simulated real-world presence for students and professionals to discuss engineering content and view presentations and simulation data online.
We encourage you to also look at the Collaborate section of the NEEShub to learn more about other collaboration tools that NEES offfers.
QuakeQuest Features
Interactive 3D World
QuakeQuest is a 3D world that comes to life in your web browser. From far-off corners of the world to spaces that feel a lot closer to home, you can connect to the virtual world to do design, communicate or just relax.
Collaborative Environment
Meet up with co-workers from remote locations to come together. Be more connected than a flat interface with character expressions as you present your work and listen and explore everyone else’s contributions.
Customizable Experience
Customize your presence in the world with customizable avatar clothing and interface colors.
Real-Time Communication
Communicate discretely with your working group or broadcast your messages to many users in online forums using fully integrated voice and text communication.
