POC-CENT

**Point of Care - Center for Emerging NeuroTechnologies (POC-CENT)**

 * Overview:** Our Center entitled, “Point-of-Care Center for Emerging NeuroTechnologies (POC-CENT)” is dedicated to the development of technologies that will dramatically improve the care and health of the neurologic patient by providing fast and reliable information about the biological events occurring in this patient population. We are a not-for-profit Center based in the University of Cincinnati, with affiliations with the Mayfield Clinic, The Neuroscience Institute, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, and the Greater Cincinnati Northern Kentucky Stroke Team. Both the University and Cincinnati and Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center currently have over 125 National Institutes of Health funded neuro-related projects, making the Cincinnati neuro community one of the leading regions in the United States for neurologic focused research. The University of Cincinnati is also fortunate to have strong programs for medical device innovation and for the development of entrepreneurial talent. Beyond the strength of our individual programs, we have a long history at the University of Cincinnati of collaborative research that combines translational medical research, cross-disciplinary technology development, advanced clinical practice and innovative entrepreneurship. The strength of our center lies in the interconnection of several existing programs to create a cohesive program that allows us to carry new technologies to new heights.

**Second Life Goals:**
Develop a virtual representation of POC-CENT to extend the opportunities for outreach and engagement with potential grant recipients. The POC-CENT in Second Life should compliment and enhance the POC-CENT website, but not duplicate the information found there. Rather, the virtual center should take advantage of the unique affordances of Second Life to offer engaging experiences that help better prepare visitors to apply for funding and learn more about POC-CENT.

02/01/10 - Continued to work on station 4 after the conference. The scripting is starting to get more complex and confusing. Will probably have to rethink how the different parts communicate with each other. -LV (3 hrs.)

01/29/10 - Changed the station 3 attribute box scripts at Rob's request. Continued script work for station 4. Switched the stand user detection from collision to 1-second short range avatar sensor sweeps. Clicking on the boxes from board 1 causes boxes on board 2 to show up. Moving away from any stand causes the board in front of it to become semi-transparent, reducing clutter at the station. -LV (5 hrs.)

01/28/10 - Started building prims and creating textures for station 4. Also began writing scripts to get the station functionality possible. To minimize the amount of confusion a user faces, different sections will be revealed as the user interacts with different items. For instance, the 1st board will appear when the circular target is stepped on and becomes faint when the user steps off of it. This change should allow users to see the other parts of the station and not be overwhelmed by information. -LV (4 hrs.)



01/27/10 - Created a diagram of the layout for station 4. I need to talk to Steve and see if it agrees with what he was thinking. -LV (3 hrs.)

Also designed an information logo that can be used throughout the building or island. -LV (4 hrs.)

01/25/10 - Got feedback for station 3 at meeting today. Resized thermometers so they are smaller and added the graph. Also modified the races so that the first race won't reset until timeout. Will make it so the conclusion of the station also resets all races. -LV (6 hrs.)

01/22/10 - Created a model ear thermometer for station 3. All thermometers stand on pedestals and rotate slowly. Also created "dumbbell" weights that list the percentages for race 2. -LV (5 hrs.)



01/21/10 - Created a model infrared thermometer for station 3. -LV (3 hrs.)

01/20/10 - Created a model digital thermometer to put inside the ring of station 3. Will create the other 2 thermometers soon. -LV (4 hrs.)

01/14/10 - Learned how the weighting of the 2nd race works and modified the scripts to do the math properly to display the weighted float values. I still need the sound source site from Chris and need to find a good way to display the weights, which are currently sitting on the ground. -LV (4 hrs.)

01/13/10 - Met with Chris, Mary, and Steve to determine the scheduling of the UCSL team for the POC-CENT project. The results can be found on top of the office building.

01/08/10 - Script on race 1 works by clicking on the command object and gives out notecards when the horses move. Script for race 2 also functional. -LV (4 hrs.)

01/07/10 - Got set up in Lindner Hall POC-CENT office. Swapped the station 3 and station 4 spaces and created a few objects for use with station 3. Need to modify the scripts so everything works properly and find a short trumpet fanfare sound that can be played when the horses move. -LV (4 hrs.)

01/06/10 - Weekly meeting held today; introduced Mary Jane to the rest of the POC-CENT team. Learned that the horse race should be split into two races, one with normal values and the other with weighted values. Also need to create some sort of chart or graph for prices. -LV (4 hrs.)

01/05/10 - Still more script work. After several hours of debugging, learned that llSetPos only works up to 10 meters. -LV (5 hrs.)

12/22/09 - Searched SL for objects that can be placed into the remaining rooms of the OR and urgent care facilities. No real luck, especially for objects with full perms. We may have to make all objects ourselves. -LV (5 hrs.)

12/17/09 - Recreated the kiosk sitting outside station 1 since it was no longer modifiable. Researched what an OR looks like and the kinds of equipment that are used in them. -LV (4 hrs.)

12/16/09 - Went to weekly meeting and received feedback on current project status. Background textures seem to be loaded properly. Will begin work on station 4 while the other stations are being written. -LV (4 hrs.)

12/15/09 - Learned from Chris that the object rezzer for station 2 requires full permissions for everything. Found a new fence texture to use with full perms. Will have to ask Chris to place the EMT people and victim into the scene. -LV (5 hrs.)

12/10/09 - Continued work on EMT scene, and tried to find good background pictures to use for the scene's "walls." Dustin gave me a good logo to use on the ambulance. -LV (2 hrs.)

12/09/09 - Went to weekly meeting for 2 hours and discussed plans for stations 3 and 4. Found a good fence to use and added to station 2 EMT scene. -LV (5 hrs.)

12/02/09 - Added interior to ambulance including stretcher. Blue asterisk now has a caduceus too and the ambulance doors are open and swung out at different angles like the EMTs ran out in a hurry. I need to make an EMS sign or get Dustin to make one for me. -LV (5 hrs.)



12/01/09 - While waiting for station descriptions, began creating an ambulance for use in station 2. The exterior is mostly done, save for a few textures like the caduceus and some sort of POCCENT EMS sign. I also need to make a stretcher of some sort, a rough interior of the ambulance, and the back doors. -LV (5 hrs.)



11/19/09 - Added Steve's notecard texts to all notecards given to the user in station 1. Changed the scripts to make an easy way to add possible correct answer choices. Debugged scripts and they seem to handle edge cases properly. Also began looking for a way to send data out to an external server so that the grant writing practice that a user will do can be emailed back to them. -LV (5 hrs.)

11/18/09 - Found a few things to change during the weekly meeting with POCCENT. Tried making a clipboard to replace the box, although it needs a texture that says "Click me" on it. Need to tweak the curtain close timing, add notecard texts, and modify the communication channels used. -LV (4 hrs.)



11/17/09 - Talked with Steve about Station 1 and modified the scripts. Instead of writing on notecards, the users will simply type /101 followed by their guess. The box will respond with a dialog box offering an explanation. A notecard with the explanation of the description good/bad points will be offered to the user. Need to make the notecard-giving box prettier. -LV (5 hrs.)



11/16/09 - Modified the scripts for the box so it reads the first line out of a notecard given to it. I might try to do this interaction differently because there are a lot of steps that users have to go through and I think it's unlikely that they will bother. -LV (2 hrs.)

11/13/09 - Added scripts that supply the user with a notecard when the box is touched. When the notecard is added back into the box, the curtain "opens" by becoming transparent for 20 seconds, revealing the product inside. Need to make the box look more appealing. -LV (2 hrs.)

11/12/09 - Built a kiosk/podium design that I think will look good with all of the stations. Also started creating the scripts necessary for station 1 to function. Users will put the notecard received after touching the box back into the box, which will trigger the curtain in front of the display to go transparent allowing them to see inside. Need to see if there is a good way for scripts to parse notecard text and read in what somebody might have written. -LV (4 hrs.)

11/10/09 - Designed and built a few different items for the first station on the second floor of the Funding building. Currently have an ear thermometer and an EKG machine. Dustin is having a little trouble with the texture for the sculpty I used for the thermometer, but in the meantime I am making the explanation kiosks for the stations. It needs to have a unified design so users will naturally go to it for information. -LV (4 hrs.)

11/05/09 - Judging by the list of different devices and other medical products that we are going to need, I took some time to learn how to make 3D sculpties, allowing more organic shapes in SL. The majority of software is written for Windows, so I dived right in and am currently attempting to make an ear thermometer. The 3D program interface is unfamiliar to me so progress is slow, but at least forward. -LV (5 hrs.)

11/04/09 - Learned about the design document for the different stations in the funding building during the weekly meeting. Discussed different products for use in station 1. Adjusted the height of the railing on the balcony to fit the texture better. -LV (3 hrs.)

11/03/09 - Spent some time looking for a decent podium to use for the front stage area. After several fruitless searches, ended up making my own. Still looking for reasonably stylish furniture to place in the atrium. -LV (4 hrs.)

10/29/09 - Mostly texture work over the past 2 days to bring the auditorium more in line with the style of the funding building. Certain accents were kept to maintain the building's identity like the white stone used and some of the wood colors. Added lights coming in from the ceiling windows. Need to find appropriate furniture like podium and tables or chairs for the atrium. -LV (5 hrs.)



10/27/09 - Fleep added a draft of the walking tour on the Commercialization floor of the funding area, with text and animations. Also added signage per the files Dustin sent. Moved around props, began to create scene for station 2 and 3. - FT (4 hrs)

Added more lighting and filled the balcony with seats. Tweaked the textures for the walls and floor and began to figure out how to recreate a carpeted floor used in the Funding building to maintain some design elements across the island. -LV (5 hrs.)

10/26/09: Fleep identified a flexible game system designed by Adobe for use in Second Life that might be useful for the POC-CENT project. She asked Steve and Dustin to review the documentation, pick up a kit, and see an example of the system in use to evaluate its feasibility. - FT (3 hrs)

[6:57] Fleep Tuque: Documentation is available at: https://buzzword.acrobat.com/#d=uv2vaMA4NEecNt6RtaP4wg [6:58] Fleep Tuque: The in world SLurl to pick up the kit is at: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Adobe/141/148/51 [6:58] Fleep Tuque: And an example of the system (this example was designed for middle school kids) is at: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Comm%20Media/228/222/22

10/23/2009 - Linked all the current prims together and sunk the theater into the ground. Experimented with lighting. Will add more next week. -LV (2 hrs.)

10/22/2009 - Made a balcony railing and looked for stairs I could use to get up the upper floor. Gave up after a while and just made a ramp with its own banister. Need to get Chris to make some more chairs for the nose-bleed section. Made a few more aesthetic adjustments, but will start focusing on adding lights next time. -LV (5 hrs.)



10/21/2009 - Attended meeting today and the current theater design was well received. Added carpets from front door to hall entrance. Also added areas to attach lights to the ceiling. Added balcony floor and door; need to make a railing and stairs to get to upper deck. -LV (5 hrs.)



10/20/2009 - Asked Chris for some help getting decent wood textures for floors and walls. Found a few good ones and have started designing the interior. Chairs have been set up and it is starting to look like a real presentation space. I would like to get some lights and a carpet to help people find the entrance to the hall. -LV (5 hrs.)



10/19/2009 - Looked around for textures and other things I could use to make the interior nicer. Am having a hard time coming up with something that looks nice. -LV (2 hrs.)

10/15/2009 - Finished with the roofing and made sure the walls joined together without any gaps or Z-fighting between prims. Will need to start working on things inside the theater like chairs, podium, etc. -LV (4 hrs.)



10/14/2009 - Added more of the roof with skylights and tweaked a few textures to look a little more real. No bad criticism from the meeting today, so will forge ahead with my design. Asked Chris for some textures and will need to find some plush theater chairs for audience members. -LV (3 hrs.)



10/13/2009 - Put up the rest of the exterior walls as well as the interior walls demarcating the actual theater/presentation space. One roof is up and I have an idea for the other half of the roof. With some extra time, I would like to add some nosebleed seats on a balcony floor, but that's a small consideration that is not nearly as important. -LV (5 hrs.)



10/12/2009 - Slanted the theater floor, added more exterior walls, and moved everything up a few meters for proper placement. Will need to modify the terrain for final placement. Will slant roofs over the theater itself, plus another slanted roof over the atrium with skylights would look really nice. I only need to figure out how to do it. -LV (2 hrs.)



10/09/09 - Built a floor and adjusted the "foundation" of the wall so it will look good even on uneven terrain. The curved wall now has an awning stretching across the length of it, and I have added a door. I am debating with myself whether the building orientation will stay this way or rotated CCW 90 degrees. Having the curve on the sidewalk part might be more aesthetically pleasing for people walking past the theater. -LV (3 hrs.)



10/08/09 - Researched a few more designs for the theater building and found a good looking design that seems to fit stylistically with the texture choices talked about during yesterday's meeting. Began building the front exterior wall. It curves, so the math is a little harder in terms of being able to make things fit properly. -LV (4hrs.)

10/07/09 - At meeting today, decided that theater/presentation space would be indoors like a lecture hall or movie theater rather than like an outdoor amphitheater. Visited the Zimmer lecture hall for a sense of spacing and then traveled to other islands in SL to see other designs. -LV (4 hrs.)

10/05/09 - Discussed office building designs with Steve and Dustin. Decided on one building and will stick to it. Mocked up a rough size for theater area and added bubble dome visually displaying effective speaking distance from front of room. Looked for pre-made theater designs from other SL residents. -LV (3 hrs.)

10/01/09 - Designed a theater area with a few office rooms that overlook the presentation space. The main room is very large; maybe even too large. A presenter may find themselves having to shout in order to be heard in the back row. Will have to look into determining how to project speech or consider making the theater smaller. -LV (4 hrs.)

9/30/09 - Added one more funding hall design, the precursor to the one modeled after UC COM.

Prototype 5: The Rubiks square

Went to weekly meeting and discussed future plans. Met afterwards with Steve and Dustin to talk about office buildings and whipped up a sketch for the theater on paper. Will turn into blocks tomorrow. -LV (4 hrs.)

9/29/09 - In preparation for Wednesday's meeting, quickly made several different designs for the Funding building. Prototype 1: The Funding Cube

Prototype 2: Funding Hall (1 story)

Prototype 3: Funding Hall (2 story)

Prototype 4: Modeled after UCCOM

Will build one more tomorrow before the meeting. -LV (5 hrs.)

9/28/09 - Continued modeling of the one design in SL. -LV (3 hrs.)

9/25/09 - Brainstormed designs for the Funding area and drafted a few buildings on paper. Began preliminary modeling of one design in SL. -LV (3 hrs.)

9/24/09 - Mock up buildings removed per our meeting this week. Funding and Communication areas moved to south side of the island, Friends and News areas moved to North side of the island. Spoke with SteveO and requested that he and Dustin help develop some textures for use in the construction of the buildings.

9/18/09 - Mockups of office building and board room building blocked out, rough building begun. Pictures for architectural inspiration taken from the NIH website. -FT (3 hrs)

9/17/09 - Rough build out of key locations on the island placed, including: - FT (4 hrs)
 * Central Landing Point
 * Funding Opportunities buildings
 * Amphitheatre
 * Partner Institutions Hub
 * Hospital Mock Up
 * Research News Building
