realXtend Virtual World Platform

realXtend is a dynamic and open platform for virtual environments and virtual worlds. The realXtend virtual worlds can function like a www-style environment, in which people can create their own worlds and network these with other virtual worlds. With realXtend, you can realise your imagined virtual worlds, allow those you want into your world and share experiences or businesses you have designed. realXtend supports numerous ways for users to exchange information and work together in virtual environments. The 3D content, interactive information and engaging user experience is best achieved with the accompanying rexViewer virtual world browser.

realXtend Game Engine

If you have ever dreamt of an accessible and scalable multiplayer engine for challenging 3D-gaming needs, the realXtend Game Engine offers you the features that are normally available only with a significant price tag included. Our solution offers features, such as, Python scripting for easy to access gameplay programming, OGRE rendering, ODE physics, network support, particle effects, dynamic levels, in-world mesh and prim based content creation, and runtime script editing.

rexViewer Browser

In order to enhance the experiences of using realXtend servers, we have developed special client software that enables you to navigate and act in all realXtend/OpenSim compatible virtual worlds and multiplayer games. rexViewer includes, for example, the following features: OGRE rendering for good-quality graphics; QuickTime, HTML and VNC media playback; custom avatar support; and stretchy bones for flexible avatars.

realXtend Global Avatar

In realXtend, the avatar has a significant role as the user's representative and virtual assistant. The avatar will be programmable and thus able to handle different tasks and orchestrate communication even when the user is not available in person. The framework includes special avatar-servers that play a key role in providing the avatar's functionality. realXtend offers a solution for a personal and authenticated global avatar that can be used in all realXtend compatible virtual worlds. This provides a degree of security and makes it possible for people to trust each other and feel confident enough to interact freely within the virtual world. The avatars can, thus, become a central communications tool combining email, text messages, VoIP, instant messaging and practically any relevant communications channels into an easy to use package.

realXtend Groupware Solution

LudoCraft has conducted extensive research on interpersonal interaction, collaboration and teamwork. Our realXtend Groupware Solution integrates many essential collaboration, communication and coordination tools into a seamless application. With our solution, you can organise and conduct cost-effective virtual meetings and group work sessions. The realXtend Groupware Solution includes, for example, the client-server system, user authentication, voice-over-IP, meeting facilities, dynamic content management, artifact sharing, editing and construction, avatars for personal identity and non-verbal communication with chat/video/web support.

Content Creation and Service Publishing Tool

Nowadays businesses are beginning to realise the potential offered by virtual worlds and have begun to utilise them increasingly. The need for visibility and the public demand for easily accessible everyday services have driven companies to consider virtual worlds as potential market places. Traditional websites offer basic functionality but, in virtual worlds, clients can be served with a more personal touch. Both the client and the vendor can have a face - with the added value that conventional interaction provides. The realXtend Content Creation and Service Publishing Tool offers companies, as well as individuals, a tool for (re)creating their businesses in virtual worlds. realXtend is a suite of tools, technologies and applications that enable you to control a multitude of services, virtual places and digital content in a seamless and engaging manner. With realXtend, it is possible to build an endless amount of applications. For example, you could offer your customers a chance to try out different hairstyles or clothing, allow them to look at and examine the qualities of premium cars or let them experience hassle-free shopping in a virtual branch of the local super market. In short, with realXtend you can create, launch and operate your business in a global cyberspace.
