VR Project

Visual Impairment VR Project

A group project, combining research and an iterative design process in the field of Virtual Reality. We took real world recommendations for the size of a white cane (between armpit and chin), with human body average proportions to convert the user's height into a value for the can'e length.

​

When the cane collides with an object, the object illuminates slightly and triggers haptic feedback in the vive controller.

​

This project relies on code which newer versions of Unity will not recognise (redundant). Please use Unity 5.6.3f1 to try it.

Special Note...

This project was very successful, such that we are presenting it at my University by request of the programme lead.
