Simulation of reality is at the centre of this hands-on course where students learn the physical principles of VR and use that knowledge to create a comfortable, high-performance VR application using Unity.
You'll use the Oculus Go—a no strings, wires, or phones attached standalone virtual reality kit—and Unity, an industry standard game engine, to create worlds that you can see, hear, and immerse yourself in.
Key topics include introduction to virtual reality and the A-Frame library; A-Frame compatible shapes such as boxes, cones, and cylinders; adding animations in their VR worlds; programming shapes to move, change color, rotate, and disappear; working with 360° images and videos (their own, sourced online, captured by others) in their VR worlds. By the end of this course, you will have created and deployed a VR application. Students with best VR apps will be given a VR Headset, VR Glasses, VR Goggles compatible with iPH & Android so you could continue developing.
This hands-on course introduces students to Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Python, one of the world’s most widely used programming languages with Cozmo, an interactive AI robot with a [personality and emotions. Topics include classical AI, machine learning, artificial neural networks and evolutionary computing approaches.
