Earlier this year we presented our virtual platform to the European Commission, as a novel means of providing increased access to justice systems and information at the EU level.

We’ve co-authored another research paper on virtual worlds and autism:

‘Empowering people with Autism through their involvement in the development of a Virtual World’, Advances in Autism, (Politis, Olivia & Olivia, 2019)

Update: New RD_Construct features on the way.

Gives users more power to change the environment to their needs, collaboratively / in real-time. Features a custom 3D model/texture uploader, spawnable brainstorming 3D models, spawnable & fully movable media resources, and a decent set of 3D manipulation tools.
