Project: Connecting the Real World with the Virtual World
Supervisor(s): Wei Liu
Project status: complete semester 2, 2008


Second Life is a 3D virtual environment that is created by Linden Labs. It is currently continuing to grow and is widely used all over the world. It has already been adopted by organisations such as IBM, Sun Microsystems, ABC, Sony, and many others.
The Sony AIBO (short for Artificial Intelligence roBOt) is an artificial intelligence robotic pet dog designed and manufactured by Sony. The AIBO is considered to be an autonomous robot, which is able to gain information about the environment and be able to function without human intervention.
The aim of this project is to use the Second Life virtual space to simulate and control the movements of the AIBO robot in a wireless environment. This project could lead to future work in various application domains such as the smart home concept or in the mining industry.
