Serious Games in Architecture
Dr. Anatoliusz (Tolek) Lesniewski, Director, Interactive Media Architecture Group in Education (IMAGINE) Lab to present his research as part of the fall 2008 COA Research Forum talk series.
The IMAGINE Lab creates high quality, video game-like environments by repurposing existing game engine software and integrates highly customized architectural models so that users can better understand the vision and context of an idea for the built environment.
The College of Architecture's COA Research Forums provide an informal setting for the community to learn about research within the College of Architecture. Forums are free and open to the public and participants are invited to explore ideas and identify opportunities for collaboration.
All talks are held in the Architecture Library from 11:00AM to 12:00PM on the last Thursday of August through April. Talks are 30 to 45 minutes followed by questions and discussion.
View past COA Research Forums through SMARTech, Georgia Tech's digital repository.
