This course teaches the students not only how to use and program with VR devices but also how to combine VR devices and other sensor or feedback devices, such as motors, to achieve VR haptic interactions. The course covers prototyping techniques, paper reading, research discussion and project implementation in VR haptic interactions in human-computer interaction (HCI). The topics include Unity, VR, Arduino programming, motors, 3D printing and research discussion.
Students must attend the first class.
DCT undergraduate students are welcome to take this course but basic programming ability is required.
能力項目說明
(1) Introducing programming in Unity and VR
(2) Basic prototyping ability for VR haptic Interactions
(3) Thinking, proposing, discussing and evaluating a novel and interesting topic
