STEAMiE Visualization/Game Engine Home Page
Overview
The STEAMiE engine is a cutting-edge system used to create advanced,
realistic, immersive simulation/learning environments. These
environments have been shown to influence comprehension and retention
of hard-to-teach science concepts. Thus far, over a dozen modules have
been constructed to teach concepts ranging from Newton's three laws,
to kinetic and potential energy, to mass versus volume, to rocks and
minerals. Additionally, research oriented scientific simulations in
the areas of avionics, medical imaging, and massively parallel
algorithm design/execution have utilized the STEAMiE engine as a
foundation for implementation and visualization.
The STEAMiE engine contains a rich feature set allowing for
development of powerful modules within a short period of time. These
features include a graphics engine, multi-media interface system,
physics engine, network engine, force abstraction system, animation
system, and event driven game play mechanism all encapsulated in a
cross platform system that runs on Windows 7, Windows XP, Windows
Vista, iPhone, Mac OS X (Intel), Mac OS X (PowerPC), and Linux.
