Javascript On-Line Learning Interactive Environment for Simulation

Projects involving JavaScript




Over the decades since this site was first developed, there have been huge changes.  In those days, Netscape was king, and Java was yet to be introduced.
Javascript was born out of security concerns when Java classes were deprecated.  Security is still a factor that hobbles the ease of developing code.
Now JavaScript is embracing sound and vision, with speech generation and understanding, and the ability to analyse camera data.  But as the amazing ability of these technologies expand, the shortcomings of the sites that introduce their use become obvious.
It can take hours of web-surfing to find a site that explains their use clearly, though in many cases AI tools have come to the rescue.  I hope that you will find that the projects in the linked pages give examples that distill the techniques to their simplest forms.
1. Adding voices to stories for children.
2. Using vision to close a position control loop.
