- MCU Dev Package -
Motor Control Unit (MCU) Development Prototypes
The Motor Control Units Development (MCU Dev) package was created to familiarize myself with
the Motor Control Unit functionality for the physics based interaction system called Forcibles
which the VR framework PuppetJump uses for object interactions.
This package was also created to explore some of the capabilities
which could become possible by using the Motor Control Units functionality.

- Passthrough VR Prototyping -
Mixed Reality Prototypes Using Passthrough VR
Passthrough VR uses the external cameras on the Virtual Reality headset to display a live feed of the user’s real world surroundings and make them visible within the virtual environment displayed in the headset. This collection of prototypes was built with the intent of exploring the functionality and capabilities accessible through the use of passthrough VR.

- VidSpheres Package -
Interactive Virtual Reality Video Viewer Prototype
The VidSpheres Package was created to dynamically display 360 videos in virtual reality (VR) using the PuppetJump framework in Unity. This prototype package allows the user to interact with their environment to dynamically activate a variety of methods for viewing 360 videos in VR. (The initial working title for this project was PuppetTheatre)

- Bees Project -
Educational Bee Anatomy Tool
The Bee Project is a web-based educational tool program designed to teach users about the anatomy of honey bees. With this tool students can learn about the anatomical structures that honey bees are made of. Users can interact with an anatomically correct bee model by selecting, moving, rotating, expanding, and hiding various body parts and internal organs.
