Technologies
Over the years KMi have developed a number of cool technologies that provide real benefits to the way you may work or study and have made these available to the world. Many of these are available as free downloads or browser based applications, some are available as pay to use services or product purchases and many more are ripe for development into world beating applications with the right development partner. If you want to know more about using our technologies or developing the next killer application, follow the links below or contact:

New Media Systems is...
Our New Media Systems research theme aims to show how new media devices, standards, architectures and concepts can change the nature of learning.
Our work involves the development of short life-cycle working prototypes of innovative technologies or concepts that we believe will influence the future of open learning within a 3-5 year timescale. Each new media concept is built into a working prototype of how the innovation may change a target community. The working prototypes are all available (in some form) from this website.
Our prototypes themselves are not designed solely for traditional Open Learning, but include a remit to show how that innovation can and will change learning at all levels and in all forms; in education, at work and play.
