XR vol.2 Electric Boogaloo

As a follow-up to yesterdays XR lecture; today I had the change to get a bit more hands-on and design (or rather make small changes to) a VR template world and actually put on a VR headset to take a look at it personally.

Unreal engine was used to design and simulate the VR environment and I was able to see what different materials, meshes, shapes, etc do and how they can be interacted with in a VR world (changing color based on movement or camera position etc).
