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.
