This project is a simple prototype VR application that allows users to interact with certain elements on the periodic table. The goal is to provide an immersive and educational experience where users can learn about different elements in a hands-on way.
To start working on this project, follow these steps:
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://gitlab.com/kdg-ti/the-lab/teams-24-25/small_cant/labprojectcant.git cd labprojectcant - Install dependencies (if applicable).
- Set up your VR environment and test the initial scene.
This project aims to explore how VR can enhance the learning experience of chemistry students by allowing them to interact with virtual representations of elements. The main objectives include:
- Displaying 3D models of elements from the periodic table.
- Allowing basic interactions such as selecting an element to see more details.
- Testing the feasibility of VR as an educational tool within the given 75-hour project timeframe.
/docs: Contains documentation, including scope definitions./src: The main source code for the VR application./assets: 3D models and textures used in the project./tests: Any test scripts or validation files.
This project is structured in four sprints, with each sprint focusing on different milestones:
- Sprint 0: Defining scope.
- Sprint 1: Setting up the VR environment and creating a basic UI.
- Sprint 2: Implementing interaction mechanics for elements .
- Sprint 3: Enhancing user experience with animations and feedback, finalizing features and conducting testing.
Planned features (subject to time constraints):
- Basic element selection and detail viewing.
- Interactive animations (e.g., atomic structure visualization).
- Potential expansion to include chemical reactions.
Since this is an individual project, external contributions are not planned at this stage.
For any questions, reach out via GitLab issues or the designated project supervisor.
