9 9 4.3 Multimedia The integration of a variety of media into one presentation (Video,Music,Voice,Graphics,Text) Should include user interactivity user interactivity: user participation in multimedia presentation

10 Links and Buttons Link: connections between one page in multimedia presentation to related pages or information. Button: special area on a page,by click on it we can jump to another related page or area. 10

11 11 Developing Multimedia Presentations steps Plan( determine project goal, resources and work team) Design ( make “story board”) - story board: design tool used to record overall logic, flow and structure of multimedia project. Create (use multimedia authoring program like Macromedia Director program to create multimedia presentation) Support : evaluation.

14 14 4.5 Artificial intelligence (AI) Artificial intelligence (AI) : field of computer science that Attempts to simulate human senses, thought processes, and actions Three areas of AI : 1. Virtual reality 2. Knowledge-based (expert) systems 3. Robotics

15 15 Virtual Reality Artificial or simulated reality Generated in 3-D by a computer Commonly known as VR, artificial reality, or virtual environments Virtual reality modeling language (VRML) Used to create real-time animated 3-D scenes Cosmos Worlds from Cosmos Software

16 16 Knowledge-Based (Expert) Systems Artificial intelligence that uses a database for assistance Database is known as a knowledge base Many use "fuzzy logic“ that allows users to respond to questions in a human like way.

17 17 Robotics The field of study concerned with using robots Robots are computer-controlled machines Mimic the motor activities of living things Three types of robots Perception systems (secure homes) Industrial robots (car industry) Mobile robots (locate explosive device)
