Designing Mixed-Reality Experiences

Catalog description

Augmented reality and virtual reality games, advertisements, installations and other media integrate virtual objects with real-world environments in an emerging computing paradigm called mixed reality. Students learn skills to creatively develop interactive mixed-reality objects and environments. Covers principles behind object-to-object access patterns, virtual physics and interactions, camera-projection coordinate systems, and programming for augmented reality/mixed reality. Although the mixed reality and object-oriented principles transcend programming language and environment, students use C# programming in the Unity Game Engine.
