🔵 🔴 🟡 Course description

The course is laboratory and is divided into three parts: in the first part simple virtual reality applications are created with instructions from the teacher, in the second part the development of more complex examples in groups is assigned and in the third part some special topics are examined. The main objective of the course is to acquire basic skills for the implementation of integrated scenarios in virtual environments. 

Upon successful completion of the courses, students are able to:

• create virtual environments with complex objects and 3D models

• add texture, motion, sound, and other physical properties to entities

• work with lights, cameras, text, and multiple users

• program the user's interaction with the scene, and

• develop code to control the flow of the application.
