Immersive VR system for industrial environment exploration

This project explores how immersive virtual reality can enhance interaction with industrial environments. A VR system was developed in Unreal Engine integrating AI-driven characters, interactive UI systems, and spatial navigation. The project focuses on improving user experience, interaction intuitiveness, and accessibility in complex 3D environments.

  • Develop an immersive VR environment for interactive exploration.
  • Integrate AI-driven interaction using MetaHuman and conversational systems.
  • Design intuitive UI/UX for VR interaction and navigation.
  • Developed the VR environment and interaction system in Unreal Engine.
  • Integrated MetaHuman and AI interaction using Convai plugin.
  • Designed VR UI systems including hand-attached interfaces and virtual keyboard.
  • Implemented interactive elements and environment transitions.
  • Built VR environment and optimized it for real-time interaction.
  • Integrated MetaHuman character as an interactive agent in the scene.
  • Developed AI communication pipeline using Convai for voice and text interaction.
  • Designed and implemented virtual keyboard and display system.
  • Implemented physical interaction systems such as switches and doors.
  • Created layout transition system for multi-scene navigation.
  • Developed hand-based UI for improved accessibility.
  • Added controller guidance system to improve user onboarding.
  • Delivered a fully interactive VR prototype with AI-driven interaction.
  • Improved usability through intuitive UI and interaction systems.
  • Enabled immersive exploration and interaction within a virtual environment.
  • Established a foundation for future intelligent VR applications.
  • Unreal Engine (VR)
  • MetaHuman Framework
  • Convai Plugin (AI interaction)
  • Motion Controllers
  • Hand UI System
  • Blueprint system
