Gareth, I am interested in similar research for a class project to help make Second Life more accessible to the visually impaired.

I would love to hear more details of what you did, and I will be happy to share what I find as well.

See my project proposal at http://markwordt.googlepages.com/robotmotionplanningproject and contact me if you are interested (my email is at the bottom of the page).
