Hold Virtual, 3D, Interactive Educational Objects in the Palm of Your Hand.

Multimedia Introductions:

As Imaginality is a very visual concept, it is easiest to learn about it in a visual way. We have a number of visual ways you can learn about Imaginality in both low and high bandwith forms:

• Video Intro: A video introducing the concept, showing it in use and outlining the key advantages and features of Imaginality. This plays for 7min 30sec, and is broken into 16 chapters, so that it is low-bandwidth friendly and you can jump straight to what interests you.
• Video Intro - High Bandwidth Version (30mb).
• Video Intro - Low Bandwidth Version (10mb).
• Slideshow Intro: A series of slides outlining what you need and how to use Imaginality.
• SlideShow Intro - Low Bandwidth (1mb).
• Photo Intro: A series of photos and text (based on the Video Intros) outlining what you need and how to use Imaginality. Best if you have a very slow internet connection.
• Photo Intro - Very Low Bandwidth (0.4mb).
• Module Videos: Many of the Modules also have videos of the modules in Use. Below are some examples of Modules that have videos:
• Planet Explorer
• Build the Heart
• 3D Multiplication
• Molecules Intro
• you can also see the whole list of Modules.

What is Imaginality:

Imaginality Unleashed is a unique product that consists of software and some physical, handheld paddles. It is used with a standard PC and webcam. When you point the webcam at a paddle, you see a virtual, 3D object hovering above it, which can interact with objects on other paddles. Imaginality enhances user understanding of spatial, temporal and contextual information in an intuitive and engaging way that is both easy and fun to use. Educational content is packaged into ‘Modules’, each of which can be purchased separately.

For visual examples, many of the Modules also have a video of the modules in use.

Why Use Imaginality:
