Quest 2
This was my first professional project as the main developer. The aim of the project was to assess civil engineering students on a common lab procedure carried out on reinforced concrete (RC) beams.
Throughout the project, the Queens University were regularly kept in contact and provided the calculations for the bend deflection model.
During the procedure, students can place displacement transducers at multiple points on a beam to record levels of deflection. Data can be recorded as changes to applied pressure are made, and in-experience snapshots can be taken; this data can then be sent to the students email on completion. Beams could even be customized, modifying dimensions, the presence of rebar etc.
A unique challenge was ensuring physical accuracy beams deflection; beams had to deflect, crack and eventually fracture. This required creative use of decals, shadergraph and a mesh fracturing tool.
Another key feature I developed was a classroom scene featuring a diegetic and interactive tutorial, which focused on in experience controls. This proved itself reusable and adaptable to other projects in the company.
Other aspects I worked on were audio design, UI design, some 3D modelling, in-game effects and some environment design (e.g. lighting, object arrangement).
