Thinglink can be used to create rich multimedia and interactive learning materials without much technical know-how. You can add or even generate a wide variety of media content types, such as images, videos, 3D models and 360-degree images. Tags can then be used to embed, for example, additional information that supports learning or various tasks into the background images and videos. Finally you link individual pieces of content together into a larger whole that may include narrative and gamified elements.
Thinglink also makes it possible to build scenarios, which are typically interactive learning paths where the user’s choices determine how the content progresses. Scenarios are used, for instance, to simulate different situations or to build gamified content. In such virtual learning environments, users can practise new or challenging situations (e.g. safety orientations).
With the Tour feature, several images can be combined into linked image sequences with text-to-speech narration, which makes it possible to build, for example, guided tours and various interactive stories.
Thinglink also offers a VR mode that allows you to view Thinglink content with VR headsets. This feature is particularly well suited for using entities built around various types of 360-degree content.
