Low Poly 3D Model

For this portion of my AR project, I tried to build something that I could put in my apartment that could be a murder weapon for my murder mystery idea. The plan was to go with something simple that would be easy to make in low poly. I started with a square/rectangle like we did…

Theatrical Flats – 3D Models

For my low poly models, I wanted to create something simple and familiar, as I’ve struggled in the past using 3D modeling software. I created the two common types of theatrical flats, Broadway- and Hollywood- styles. These are often painted and used on the stage to represent all sorts of things, most often background structures….

Preliminary Models

I really enjoyed making perfectly symmetrical models and then intentionally making them wacky in the Dr. Seuss style. Having said that, I am conflicted about using Dr. Seuss at all due to his history of racism and generally not being a kind neighbor. My bottle model is approximately 4500 polys and my creature model is…

AR Proposal

I don’t know if it’s fate. All my classrooms this semester have no windows, the studio in Unity Hall also has no windows. If iLab counts, it’s probably the only classroom with windows. (But now after spring break, it’s gone too.) And I want a window! I got inspired by the movie Treasure Planet, there…

Finished Game

The video in the previous post: already shows my game. Here is the final result with the guitar controller hooked up. As you can see, you can move the character by touching the four strings. It’s just that the bottom string has to be touched all the time. It’s not very obvious in the video,…

My Guitar Controller

As my favorite instrument, and also an element of my game. I choose to use my guitar as a controller. The good thing is the guitar strings are conductive. The only thing I need to do is wire the MakeyMakey to the guitar and it should work. There are 6 strings, but I only need…

AR Production Proposal

I’d like to make the mural on the side of the CC come to life and make a tree grow out of the wall. Here are the 3 main keyframe.

Looking Glass AR

for this site-specific project I am interested in accessibility with augmented reality and want to allow the user to be device-free by installing the hardware into the site in a way that fits the location. My overall location will be on WPI campus or within a few blocks of campus. I am currently still researching…

Interactive AR Milky Way Art Gallery _0_Proposal

My idea is to recreate my apartment into an Interactive Milky Way Gallery. For the real-world environment setting, I’m going to hang some artwork, photographs related to the solar system, and some markers on the wall. The white wall will be “painted” to darker colors in AR to make it more like Milky Way. To…

Site Specific AR Proposal – Apartment Room

For my AR project, I want to work with my apartment. I think it would be cool to see how I could get my apartment to have objects in it hidden around for a puzzle or even just to see how the apartment could look if I used AR to redesign it (without having to…

AR Project Proposal

I don’t have many ideas for this, unfortunately. AR isn’t something I’ve thought a lot about. But I do have some ideas, so I’ll list them below 1. An app that puts silly hats on random passersbys2. An app that puts Groucho Marx glasses on random passerbys3. An app that simulates a little figure running…

REvision/PoliSH/coMPLetion…

I have considered the feedback given by my peers and widely agree with the vast majority of comments.  I sadly don’t have the base knowledge to fix or adapt many of them into the game at this moment. I have started taking tutorials for unity with the help of Lost Relic Games’ YouTube tutorials. I’m…
