SnowWorld

I read Mark Hodges' article "Cyber Therapy" in the January 2001 issue (pg. 28) with fascination and interest. The description of the ongoing pain control research at the HIT (Human Interface Technology) Lab at the University of Washington was of particular interest to me because of my company's involvement in the development of SnowWorld, one of the virtual environments being used at HIT to divert burn victims from their pain.

SnowWorld was not only created and powered by MultiGen-Paradigm's Vega and Creator products, but was conceived and created by a team of engineers and artists at MultiGen-Paradigm (a division of Computer Associates). SnowWorld is currently maintained by a team of engineers at SimWright, and can be seen at http://snowworld.simwright.net/

It's great to see that the program continues and that people are reaping the benefits of HIT project leader Hunter Hoffman's vision and tireless efforts.
