Abstract :
In this paper, we describe BlueLearn, an interactive, location-aware learning environment, which can be utilized with minimum hardware investment from the learner´s side. The system is an extension and an application of the BlueInfo “automatic helpdesk” system we have demonstrated earlier. We outline a system that extends the basic idea of the BlueInfo to cover spatially and temporally wider applications, suitable for implementing interactive games and educational systems with reasonable cost.
