Security consultant Simon Lambert invites you into the virtual world of Second Life.
As Simon, a member of the Association of Security Consultants, puts it: How would you like to drop in any time and walk around your new control room, even if today it’s only your ideas scribbled on a napkin?<br><br>“The internet and computer graphics available to us all now put amazing free tools within easy reach,” says Simon. “The example control room that I built in a so-called ‘virtual world’ allows clients, users, contractors, consultants, etc, to visit via the internet for walk-throughs and have live discussions trying design changes there and then. When people can conduct the design phase at their own desks the costs of travel and time are saved.”<br><br>To introduce readers to the virtual world Simon will be holding an ‘open house’ with free consultancy on all matters CCTV. On Tuesday, August 11, office-hours and out-of-hours sessions will be put on. See the Lambert Associates website for details –
