Course overview
The aim of this module is to teach students to create virtual and augmented reality applications. They will learn how to implement basic movement and interaction specific to virtual and augmented reality spaces. They will also learn to manage events in order to create computer games and other virtual and augmented reality applications.
Knowledge of creating virtual and augmented reality applications is becoming an increasingly sought-after skill. In addition to the entertainment industry, virtual and augmented reality applications are also applied in many other industries: medicine, education, automotive industry, architecture, product visualization, etc. Considering market trends, these skills are already significant and will become increasingly significant in the future.
