0x0B. Unity - VR Room

Resources 📚

• The Science of Locomotion in VR
• Movement in VR
• Game Design Deep Dive: Making VR movement feel like a superpower
• Why AR/VR developers should prioritize accessibility in UI / UX Design
• Unity Manual: Introduction to VR Best Practices
• Unity Manual: Understanding optimization in Unity
• Unity Manual
• UI / UX in AR / VR

Learning Objectives 💡

At the end of this project you are expected to be able to explain to anyone, without the help of Google:

• What are the different types of locomotion / movement in VR
• What causes VR motion sickness
• What are the different methods of minimizing VR motion sickness in locomotion implementations
• How to implement a teleportation method of movement in VR
• How to implement interactive objects in VR

Requirements ✅

• A README.md file, at the root of the folder of the project
• Use Unity’s default .gitignore in your 0x0B-unity-vr_room directory
• This project should be uploaded to its own repo named 0x0B-unity-vr_room
• Scenes and project assets such as Scripts must be organized as described in the tasks
• In your scripts, all your public classes and their members should have XML documentation tags
• In your scripts, all your private classes and members should be documented but without XML documentation tags

Tasks

Mandatory 📃

• 0. You ever wonder why we're here - In this project, you will be creating a sitting / standing VR experience in the form of a simple exploration (mandatory tasks) or “escape room”-style game (advanced tasks)
• 1. Instant transmission - Implement the “teleportation” method of movement so that the user can use the controller to indicate where they want to move and move there on button press
• 2. Object oriented - Create interaction that allows an object to be picked up and/or interacted with by the controller(s). How you implement the interaction may be determined by the VR headset / controller you are targeting, but always keep the user in mind and make their experience as smooth and intuitive as possible
• 3. Let the right one in - Script interaction in the scene so that the door opens with an animation when the user interacts with it
• 4. An "on" button would have sufficed - Script interaction in the scene so that the projector in the center of the second room turns on when the user interacts with it
• 5. We didn't really escape though - Create a build of the tour

Advance 💪

• 6. Doors should not be this hard to open - Scenes in Build
• 7. Astro projection - Script interaction in the scene so that the user must interact with at least four objects before the projector in the center of the second room turns on
