In this module, I developed a virtual reality experience for the HTC Vive, allowing users to enter my uncle’s bedroom and interact with the many curious items he has collected over the many years he has spent living across East Asia. Through motion tracking, users can move through the space and pick up and examine objects using the Vive controllers and read about their history. All of the items were modelled in 3DS Max and textured using high-resolution photographs of the original items. The GSA later used the project in promotional materials and social media advertising for the Immersive Systems degree.
