EEDays: Interactive visualization workshop, XR solutions for the built environment – Part 1
The Vision & Engineering EELISA Community has crafted this online seminar as the first step of a two-part a series on Interactive Visualization. These lectures will be followed by an onsite event to learn about the visualisation optimisation of 3D models for VR applications and create your own urban VR environment.
10:00 – 11:00 Introduction to Virtual Reality and its Applications in the Urban Context
This unit serves as an introduction to the world of Virtual Reality (VR) and its many applications. It will explore various case studies, showcasing projects that highlight the transformative potential of VR. Demonstrations will further enhance understanding by showing how VR can effectively represent and simulate complex urban spaces. A comprehensive review of the state of the art in VR technology will be included, discussing the latest advancements and trends that are shaping the field.
11:3’0 – 12:30 Technologies and Software for Developing VR Applications in Unity
This lesson provides a comprehensive introduction to the basics of Unity, a powerful platform for creating immersive experiences. Key topics include navigating the user interface, understanding scene management and the essential steps for creating virtual reality (VR) projects. The class will then focus on the process of importing 3D models into Unity. Students will learn how to use software such as Blender and Metashape, which are essential tools for creating detailed 3D assets. A special focus will be placed on photogrammetry techniques, demonstrating how real-world images can be transformed into accurate 3D models. Discussions will include best practices for optimising resources to ensure that imported models maintain efficient performance without compromising visual quality.
This seminar is the first part of a series created by the Vision & Engineering EELISA Community. You can join an onsite event to learn about the visualisation optimisation of 3D models for VR applications and create your own urban VR environment.
