There are an almost infinite number of Multimedia Systems out there. The syllabus takes a more narrow view of what comprises a multimedia system and provides a few examples only (thankfully!) These include:

• education and training

• leisure and entertainment

• information provision, such as information kiosk

• virtual reality and simulations such as flight simulator

• combined areas such as educational games

While also discussing advances in technology which are influencing multimedia development.

The presentation below is made to be viewed "as is", without speaker notes as a guide to student note taking and discussion.
