VR - Research Simulation
Published Project
Extended Reality course hosted by MIT. In this custom-built VR simulation, students learn about the Curiosity rover, drive it around on Mars, and drill for rock samples by controlling its robotic arm.
Features And Contributions
I served as the Lead VR Programmer and Consultant on the research study.
​
We were funded by the MIT alumni program along with the MIT aerospace program which was organized and lead under the ESL laboratories.
​
This was later adopted into the MIT curriculum as part of a class study.
Programming
Spearheaded design and integration of APIs to enhance the immersive VR experience on Oculus Quest2​​
Research
Scientists care about numbers, A LOT. On the job I worked closely with with MIT researchers to develop 1-to-1 physics and environmental scaling for Mars rovers and its user interactions
Game Design / Programming
Developed and published mechanics and User Interactions which would serve to showcase researcher data and objectives
