Virtual World-Software for science experiments- can be used by anyone to do experiments as objects in that software will behave like real world.
What is:
Virtual world, a software tool, has all physical and behavior property of real world like gravity, pressure, heat, forces and so on. So if a ball is dropped, it will fall down in the same speed as that of real world ball. Any experiment can be done with any object and parameter.
How:
All basic particles like electron, proton and so on should be defined with their physical and behavior property. All scientific laws should be defined. So these particles will behave as like in real world. As these basic particles are building blocks, all objects will behave as per law.
Features:
1)Parameter can be changed. In a ball dropping experiment, if we change the surface gravity to 1.62 m / s2, it will behave like a ball dropped in moon.
2)Measurement at any point of the experiment can be measured. Experiment can be repeated with slow motion, so observation can be made easy. Objects involved can be transferred, so internal behaviors of the other objects can be easily measured.
3)Any full experiment done by a user can be saved as project and can be used later. These experiments models can be easily upload able to website, so that anyone can download and use those experiment models and use them.
4)Experimenting with any harmful elements will be easy.
Possible:
Animated characters in video games are behaving according to user interface. So building an application, virtual world, is not impossible.
Note:
Virtual cannot replace real lab, because all the laws are being defined by human only. So new discoveries are not possible. But it will lead to real discoveries.
Whenever new discoveries are found, that laws should be updated in this tool.
Virtual World software is like ATM machine while Real Lab is Bank.
Everyone who wants to do science experiments. To do scientific experiment we should be a student or scientist. We have so many brightest minds. But few of them get chance and sponsors to do experiments. So if we build a software, anyone can do experiment. We will get more discoveries. Still we dont get unified theory.
Think about African and Southeast Asian countries. Do they have enough labs? How many brightest minds are we loosing?
Think about school students. Can we allow them to work with high energy particle, if they want?
This idea will help scientists also. Observing the experiments, by changing values that cannot be changed in real world, is possible. In real world they are doing calculations to fine conclusion on this kind of scenarios.
Please vote for Virtual World to make it real.

  • I have always wanted to have virtual physics lab for many experiments from large to small. However, I must caution that you must realize the limitations since you cannot possibly know all the laws and all the properties since we are still discovering and redefining the least familiar. Some are yet to be discovered and detailed, and may not exist such as higgs boson.

    Still, a great idea and can be used to refine knowledge and invent new things. I hope you win this one too.

  • ThankYou for your valid comment. Consolidating all the scientific laws may not take time. But applying into virtual will be tough. Do remember to vote for Virtual World!!

  • Kudos raja

    Really a great idea..

    Keep it up..

    Keep doing the good as same.

    Mahesh..KC

  • raja u did a very good job. i think very few people can do it like that . and u r one of them i would give u 5 star

see all

  • Superb idea. I've often had fantasies about becoming a programmer and making software to accurately reacreate a game world with accurate physics. Part of the problem with that though is that you need to know the rules in order to recreate them.

  • Kudos ! Nice idea. As the whole world is going towards virtual , it will be very much ideal for collaboration works and reduces cost.

    How good if we have Virtual Food :)

  • Go Virtual World, go!

  • Raja this is realy excellent.keep it up ur creative

  • hai macchi, kallakkura, keep it up too

  • This is a neat idea although I think you should also emphasize the collaborative aspect more. This project could have lots of potential for schools and science education in general, it also fits nicely with America's push to get more girls studying science.

  • Looks like this is a forever project, the boundary is too huge. It is like 'The Matrix'
