Interested in learning how to build VR? Here’s a secret: it’s not that difficult! Come on over so we can prove it to you.
This Lightning Learn will cover how to build your own art and models with Unity and other creation tools, and then bring them into your own VR world! This is an essential step when customizing the look and feel of your virtual projects. We will walk you through how to build your own model using Tilt Brush, Google Blocks, Oculus Medium, and Unity, and then bring all of those assets into your project for additional use.
Key Learnings:
Basics of Unity Editor
Unity Asset Store
Tilt Brush, Google Blocks, Oculus Medium
Importing custom assets
What you will need:
A curiosity or passion for emerging technologies and curiosity of Virtual and Augmented Reality.
Please bring your computer with the latest version of Unity downloaded. Due to the high-demand of this workshop, we cannot provide everyone a computer!
