Overview

Virtual reality is changing communication paradigms in various industries. From products to projects, from brands to company profiles, more and more companies are investing in this technology, fueling a continuously growing market. Unleash the skills necessary to become a key player in the ongoing digital transformation. Unreal Engine, which is currently the most comprehensive Game Engine on the market, is one of the most suitable tools for developing VR experiences. Thanks to its numerous built-in editors, it allows you to create realistic environments and program any interaction or VR simulation within them. The course aims to train individuals capable of effectively implementing a practical VR experience development workflow. The main editors of Unreal Engine will be detailed, with special attention not only to the creation of the virtual environment but also to programming interactions with the virtual world. During laboratory activities, the main XR headsets and hardware on the market will be presented and tested.

Educational Objectives

Empower learners to create environments using Unreal Engine for exploration or VR simulation purposes. Starting from provided 3D models, the development process will be detailed, from optimizing and producing game assets to creating the virtual environment and characterizing it in terms of lighting, materials, collisions, and trigger events. The course will also cover aspects related to Blueprint programming, necessary for creating interactions within the VR environment. Finally, the main VR consumption and tracking systems, primarily from the HTC and Meta suite, will be addressed and tested during laboratory activities. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to develop interactive VR experiences and, more importantly, will have assimilated the development workflow and problem-solving approach required for this type of activity.
The program is structured into modules, each lasting about two hours. The modules are as follows and may be subject to changes based on the learners' group homogeneity.
