  1. I wrote the software, but Skip gets the glory ;) on Military Uses Virtual Iraq To Treat PTSD · · Score: 1

    I know its the way of the world in academia that the PI gets the glory, but on here I'll pull out my tin cup...

    I worked at ICT for several years up til this march on Virtual Iraq. I'm a video game programmer by trade and did work on the renderer, collision system, networking,user interface, and AI agent system for controlling the in game agents. I designed and wrote Maya tools and a scripting system for artists to help put together scenarios, wrote the on disk installer, and really was the only engineer on the project for several years, although my friend Anton did the stereoscopic effects and a fine job mentoring me. There was also a codebase in existence when I showed up the first time, if that is what one might call it ;)

    I'm hoping to return to UCLA for the Phd or find another lab to work in; artificial intelligence is my field. At the moment though I'm moonlighting on a short term project and remain hopeful...
