Project Overview
Scope
Concept:
Developed a virtual reality driving game using Unity where the user drives around a track.
Technical:
Collision Detection and Impact Feedback
Implemented a collision detection system that provides real-time feedback when the player's vehicle collides with objects, enhancing the realism of the experience.
Code Snippet:
1public class PlayImpact : MonoBehaviour
2{
3 public AudioSource ImpactSound;
4 public float ImpactMinSpeed;
5
6 void OnCollisionEnter(Collision MyPlayer)
7 {
8 if (MyPlayer.gameObject.CompareTag("Player"))
9 {
10 if (Mathf.Abs(ApplicationData.CurrentYVelocity) > ImpactMinSpeed)
11 {
12 ImpactSound.Play();
13 }
14 }
15 }
16}
17- The
PlayImpactclass detects collisions between the player's vehicle and other objects. If the collision speed exceeds a minimum threshold (ImpactMinSpeed), an impact sound is played to alert the player.
Dynamic Vehicle Sound and Speed Display
Created a dynamic sound controller and speed display to simulate realistic engine sounds based on the vehicle's speed. This feature helps students gauge their speed and enhances immersion.
Code Snippet:
1public class SoundController : MonoBehaviour
2{
3 public AudioSource CarSound;
4
5 void Update()
6 {
7 CarSound.volume = Mathf.Abs(ApplicationData.CurrentZVelocity / 20.0f);
8 CarSound.pitch = Mathf.Abs(ApplicationData.CurrentZVelocity / 20.0f) + 0.3f;
9 }
10}
11- The
SoundControlleradjusts the car's engine sound volume and pitch relative to the vehicle's current speed (CurrentZVelocity), providing auditory feedback that reflects acceleration and deceleration.
Impact
- Immersive Experience: The app allowing players to navigate a volcano-themed track with realistic driving mechanics and audio effects, enhancing enjoyment and engagement.
- User Experience: The captivating environment and high-speed challenges keep players actively engaged, encouraging repeated play and competition to achieve better race times.
- Innovation: By leveraging virtual reality technology and realistic sound design, the project demonstrates how immersive environments can be created to enhance entertainment, showcasing creative application of technology in game development.
