IMPORTANT: this class is Wed 6,7,8 (13:20~16:20), but was listed as Tue. Please come to the first class on 9/3 to enroll (Room 523, MK Innovation Hall). Virtual and Mixed Reality (VR/MR) provide immersive user interaction and experience beyond what's possible with traditional mobile and desktop interfaces. There will be self-paced learning of Unity 3D, an interdisciplinary team project, paper reading, and lectures on VR/MR storytelling/game design techniques. Recent class projects have won multiple ACM CHI Student Game Design Competitions (?? Winner in 2025 and 2023, 2nd place in 2024), and also have been featured by ACM SIGGRAPH Blog ( https://blog.siggraph.org/2023/06/the-extraordinary-is-ordinary-in-this-vr-wonderland.html/ ) For this semester, we will focus on combining mixed-reality (VR/MR) game design into a creative experience. Please come to the first class to apply to enroll in this course, and see https://mikechen.com/ for more info on past projects.
