1. A computerized ad system for advertising in a virtual environment, said ad system comprising:
- an ad engine that performs automatic impression metric calculations using impression metric processing software, wherein ad object data and camera data are used to calculate the automatic impression metric calculations;
an advertising enabled application that includes a processor configured to execute said advertising enabled application such that executing said advertising enabled application allows the ad engine to access the ad object data and the camera data;
a presentation component that displays ad content to a user;
an advertising scheduling system; and
one or more billing components.

Abstract
An ad system for use in a virtual environment. The ad system includes an ad engine integrated in an advertising enabled application, an advertising scheduling system, reporting software, impression metric processing software, and billing components wherein coordinates of ad object and camera data were made available to the ad engine during development of the application. Related methods of developing advertising enabled application software including an ad engine and use of a computer system for delivering ad content within a virtual environment are also provided.
