Tasks

Weekly Assignments after lectures

• Task 1

  It was a reserach about VR Industry and inital project ideas expectation through the diploma.

• Task 4

  After learning how to handle basic controls of week 4 and dealing with animation in week 5, this assignment requirements is:

  1. Download 3D model from mixamo

  2. Download walk animation for said model

  3. Download idle animation for said model

  4. Make blend tree with the two animations

  5. Blend tree got 2 parameters (x, y)

      When x=0 y=0 idle animation is playing
      When x=0 y=1 walk animation is playing
     

  6. Make a raycast that comes out the right hand controller to distance set to 1000

  7. Put a line renderer component that represents the raycast in real time "bonus point"

  8. On click with the right hangd trigger the 3D model that we've made start walking to the point of "hit" of raycast

  9. When the model reaches the destination the blend tree animation change from walking to idle

Labs

The Weekly Labs through out the diploma in 412Labs company site where we implemented real life VR/AR Games & Applications.

Each Lab is considered a whole separte big project.

The Labs Directory contains a separted README for their description & requirments.
