11 Oct 2007

Mumbai: Core Projects & Technologies Ltd has entered into an agreement with the Center of Higher Learning (CHL), a collaborative venture of the National Aerospace and Space Administration of the US, for content delivery in the global education space.

CHL, located at the NASA John C Stennis Space Center, is a collaborative effort with American State of Mississippi and is administered by the University of Southern Mississippi.

CHL uses the pioneering cave automatic virtual environment (CAVE) technology to create virtual reality-based educational content and curriculum.

The Core-CHL collaboration is exclusively for the Asia-Pacific region and will enable Core to assimilate and internalise the technology for use in developing content for the Indian and international education markets.

"This arrangement will arm us with tomorrow''s technology and enable us to significantly contribute to global education markets. Students around the world will benefit from the use of CAVE technology, as this will take teaching and learning to a completely different level," said Sanjeev Mansotra, chairman and managing director of Croe.
