[VR Lab Workshop] One-day Intensive Workshop on Digital Competency (2024-06-17)

The VR Lab Workshop at Hong Kong Shue Yan University is an exciting and immersive experience that aims to introduce participants to the world of virtual reality. This workshop consists of two sessions, each focusing on a different aspect of VR development.

The first session of the workshop is dedicated to Blender, a powerful 3D modeling and animation software. Participants will learn the basics of Blender and how to create 3D models that can be used in virtual reality environments. They will be guided through the process of designing and manipulating objects, as well as applying textures and materials to enhance the realism of their creations. By the end of this session, participants will have a solid foundation in 3D modeling and will be able to create their own virtual objects.

The second session of the workshop is centered around Unity, a popular game development engine widely used in the VR industry. Participants will learn how to use Unity to build interactive virtual reality experiences. They will be introduced to the Unity interface and learn how to import 3D models created in Blender. Participants will also explore the various tools and features of Unity that enable them to create immersive environments, implement user interactions, and add audio and visual effects. By the end of this session, participants will have the skills to develop their own VR applications using Unity.

Throughout the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to engage in hands-on activities and practical exercises. They will be encouraged to experiment and explore their creativity, as well as collaborate with fellow participants. The workshop will be facilitated by experienced instructors who will provide guidance and support throughout the learning process.

By attending the VR Lab Workshop at Hong Kong Shue Yan University, participants will gain valuable knowledge and skills in VR development. They will be equipped with the necessary tools and techniques to create their own virtual reality experiences using Blender and Unity. Whether participants are beginners or have some prior experience in VR development, this workshop offers a comprehensive and engaging learning experience that will inspire and empower them to explore the exciting world of virtual reality.
