Ishaan’s Status Report 02/21/21

 

I worked on designing our solution and how each component in our project would interact. The figure below demonstrates how the different game components will interact.  

For the glove component I researched different micro controllers would best suit our use case and what sensors, motors we need for haptic feedback[1] [2].

 

Understanding Technical risks: 

I researched different attempts of building fruit ninja in VR and found that translating the 2D visuals to 3D while maintaining a responsive user interface was the most demanding aspect of the project. [3]

Progress Status – On Schedule

Deliverables for next week: 

1. Setting up the Unity Game environment
2. Understanding the requirements for 3D modeling and building our fruits
3.  Designing object/input tracking framework
