One aspect of a growing VR industry that developers have to face is the ethics behind the technology. This includes making sure that technology is readily available and accessible to as large of a population as possible. Current consumer virtual reality (VR) headsets typically utilize two controllers to navigate a virtual environment, leading to accessibility issues for potential users that cannot effectively operate a controller. We propose NaVRgate, a proof of concept idea that removes the need for controllers in which a user uses expressions to navigate a virtual environment. The system utilizes the computer webcam and computer vision face and eye position tracking to capture the nature of expression tracking, with certain positional thresholds representing different facial expressions. To test this system, We design a game environment where a user navigates with either a controller or the face position tracker, collecting a set of orbs scattered around the map as quickly as they can, comparing the efficiency between navigation through the novel computer vision and traditional controller methods. Users are also questioned on the difficulty of use and experience with each control input method. This paper details the process of the development and drafts, to the statistical experiment constructed to determine the efficiency of head gestures.

Augmented Reality is live, direct or indirect view of a physical real world environment whose elements are augmented by personal computers (PC) that produces the information such as sound, video, designs or GPS data. This paper shows an instructive mobile application based system model on Augmented Reality which is used to learn subjects like history through augmented videos. The objective of development of this system model is to make the learning interesting for the young generation. Unity 3D and Vuforia Augmented Reality Software Development Kit (SDK) is used for the development of this model. The prime purpose of this application model is to enhance the learning process with digital technologies. This paper has step by step implementation instructions for the development of augmented reality modeling that can supplement the current teaching-learning environment to generate interest among young generation in less interesting subjects such as History, Geography, etc.

Since the success of SpaceX's reusable launch system program, there has been a massive resurgence in interest in space, hundreds of companies and startups are racing to develop cheaper ways of venturing into the vacuum of space. As a result, the sustainability of the space environment will be put under great danger and pressure, threatening all other future space activities. In the study, we attempt to quantify the chain effect of various forms of space activities and orbital debris using Unity3D, followed by proposing the plan to use NASA's simulation software Orbital Debris Engineering Model (ORDEM) 3.0 and Debris Assessment Software (DAS) 3.0.

Shallow water simulation is a prominent area of research in virtual reality systems. It is used for physics simulations as well as rendering for games and virtual environments. The simulation in important because we need to show the wave nature and also the buoyancy to make the environment more realistic. In essence it adds as a new dimension to the whole setting. These models can also be used to predict nature of tides, tsunami's and ocean surfaces. We have used a GUI in MATLAB R and for the physical simulation and Unity and Blender for a realistic virtual environment development.

A Vuforia SDK-based AR application uses the display of the mobile device as a "magic lens" or looking glass into an augmented world where the real and virtual worlds appear to coexist. The application renders the live camera preview image on the display to represent a view of the physical world. Virtual 3D objects are then superimposed on the live camera preview and they appear to be tightly coupled in the real world An application developed for Vuforia will give your users a more compelling experience:

In the fast growing field of software engineering and development and even more rapidly growing sector of game development the future is hard to predict. I am working with this game as my software project , is a 1.5 credit course and as part of our degree i choose this type of work for doing better with development cycle, development period, graphics, scripting, adopting new technology, animation. In general software project is a project focusing on the creation of software. Consequently, Success can be measured by taking a look at the resulting software. In a game project, the product is a game. But and here comes the point: A game is much more than just its software. It has to provide content to become enjoyable. Just like a web server: without content the server is useless, and the quality cannot be measured. This has an important effect on the game project as a whole. The software part of the project is not the only one, and it must be considered in connection to all other parts: The environment of the game, the story, characters, game plays, the artwork, and so on.

Distinct professional areas of Architecture, Computer Graphics, and recently Game Development, are merging to create the possibility of 3D architecture visualization in realtime that is seen by many as the next logical step on the digital architecture visualization world. This is a very recent field that hasn't been thoroughly explored yet. What made this possible was the creation of game engines that could render physically-based materials in real-time and allow for some rendering techniques to finally be adapted to real-time rendering engines, which highly improved the photorealism possibilities in the resulting applications.

The industry of real estate is rapidly growing and its competition rises every year. This occurrence adds pressure to real estate agents and causes confusion to regular people
who want to buy a property of their own. Of all the aggressive, persuasive, and competitive real estate companies out there,
the proponents have chosen the Victoria Sports Tower Station II condominium of New San José Builders Inc. which approved to carry out the proposed system, Project G.O.D. The proposed system is not only designed to help real estate agents to gain a
competitive advantage in real estate sales and marketing. But also, it helps buyers to experience the ease of choosing a property without the hassle of going to the real
showroom if they lack the time opportunity. The proponents hoped for other companies to embrace and implement the
proposed system to gain recognition and make a mark in real estate marketing.

Virtual Reality has opened countless paths for people to experience activities that would be deemed dangerous. With the advent of affordable, consumer-level virtual reality appliances appearing in the market in the last 5 years, more and more dangerous sports have become virtually accessible to the general public at a fraction of their real-life prices. Air sports is one of those dangerous sports, with thousands of novice fliers involving themselves in accidents every year around the world. Paragliding/paramotoring training usually takes place on the field, where injuries are prone to occur. This research project aims to rectify this problem by developing a safe and helpful way for beginners to learn and experience the thrill of paramotoring from the comfort of their homes. The project utilises a 2-DOF parallel mechanism that can simulate both roll and pitch movement, which at first may sound limited, but is very convincing once the mind is tricked by visual and auditory cues. 2-DOF parallel manipulators also answer the question of cost, as the number of moving parts is less than conventional 6-DOF motion platforms such as the Stewart Platform. This project aims to deliver on the experience of piloting a paramotor trike in landed and aerial modes, in recreational or training scenarios as well as provide path planning and live monitoring by the trainer. The motion seat is designed to be powered by two linear actuators, which attach to the back of the seat to deliver the pitch and roll motions. The software is designed in Unity, a free game development engine with support for virtual reality content.

Augmented Reality is going to have a bright future with increasing usage of mobile devices and the project uses the main advantages of the Augmented Reality. One of the most important advantages is to make interaction between real life and virtuality, and our purpose is to make this interaction possible everywhere via mobile devices. By using these advantages, students, lecturers or newcomers are going to have a comfortable university life. The project guides them to take more information about their university buildings, important places, and lecturers. Moreover, with some entertaining videos and pictures, the project will let them enjoy the university life. With the development tools used in this project like Unity3d, Vuforia, and 3Ds Max, this paper will also cover the educational side of the Augmented Reality. After this project, there will be an application that is compatible with all mobile platforms, and this application will be a good example of Augmented Reality with all the features can be performed inside our university. How this project is going to develop and what technology is behind this project is explained in this paper.

Part of a course about “Interactive Objects in Gaming Applications: Basic principles and practical scenarios using the Unity platform”, in which I am covering the part about how objects can exhibit behavior. This part is on pathfinding or path planning.

Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Darstellung von physikalisch korrektem Nebel mit Partikelsystemen in 3D-Echtzeit-Umgebungen, wie sie bei 3D-Spielen verwendet werden. Aktuelle Systeme, wie beispielsweise NVIDIA PhysX, arbeiten oft wenig physikalisch korrekt oder weisen eine geringe Laufzeitperformance auf. Als Lösungsansatz wird hier ein gridbasierter 2D Fluidssolver vorgeschlagen. Dieses System wird anhand von Z-Buffern und Parallax Occlusion Mapping in der 3D Umgebung implementiert. Ergebnis dieser Arbeit ist eine, in Echtzeit berechenbare Nebelsimulation, die als Unity3D Asset implementiert wird und physikalisch korrekt arbeitet. Alle wichtigen Parameter können vom Benutzer frei bestimmt werden. Dieses Asset soll für Spieleentwickler verfügbar und benutzbar sein. Abschließend wird eine Benutzerstudie zur Usability Performanz und physikalischen Korrektheit des Systems durchgeführt.

This thesis deals with the simulation of physically correct fog with particle systems in 3D Environments, as they are used in 3D-Games. Current solutions like NVIDIA’s PhysX are either not physical correct or they have a poor runtime performance. In this thesis a two dimensional fluid solver is proposed. This system will then be implemented in a 3D-Environment with the help of Z-Buffers and Parallax Occlusion Mapping. The result of this work is a physical correct simulation of fog that is computable in real-time and is implemented as a Unity3D asset. All necessary parameters can be chosen by the user. Furthermore this asset shall be available for game developers. Subsequently a user-study for the usability performance and the physical correctness is carried out.

The purpose of this Masters thesis is to develop a “Helper Tool” for Game Design engineers to balance internal economies of Game prototypes. The tool named RecMon is inspired by the Machinations Framework which is believed to be the UML tool for Game Designers. RecMon acts as a Unity plugin and has different windows to display various features like resource monitoring, recording, visualization and data exporting. The study takes a unique approach of considering 2 different game genres and fidelity levels of prototyping in parallel. An RTS Game Demo is implemented in a high-fidelity Unity Environment and a Tower Defense game demo is Paper prototyped. RecMon and Machinations are evaluated for both the demos and certain adjustments to the tool are made. The final product of this thesis is RecMon, a tool which helps Game Designers to balance the internal economies of their games in the prototyping phase itself by providing real-time resource variation data to the developer so that strategies could be developed.

In the first decades of the twenty-first century, ‘indie’ became a widespread descriptor for a gaming culture comprising developers, players, and distributors interested in creating an alternative to what was seen as a glutted, uninspired, and corporatized game market. While the indie movement is often argued to have facilitated a new, ‘DIY’ mentality in the design and practice of games and interactive media, the aesthetics and technical practices behind the culture share strong affinities to computational forms of art and music throughout the late twentieth century. This essay aligns the aesthetics and creative practices of indie game designers with traditions of ‘generative’ art and music from the late twentieth century. In doing so, I outline a broader musical turn that has occurred within gaming culture—one in which sound becomes a primary mechanic in the shaping of ‘procedural’ and generative aesthetics at the heart of various forms of digital art. Ultimately, I provide not only an account of the ways in which sound and musical design have helped to characterize the ludic interests of the indie game movement in the first decades of the twenty-first century, but also a theoretical model adequate to understanding the relationship between interactive systems, musical and sonic meaning, and user experience both in games and digital platforms more broadly.
