Introduction
In this showcase below, I present a comprehensive walkthrough of the 'Test for Lipids' practical simulation, a pivotal feature of the StanLab VR Desktop Application. This project, developed during my tenure at StanLab VR, represents a fusion of cutting-edge technology and educational innovation. Utilizing the Unity game engine and C# in Visual Studio, I meticulously crafted this simulation to deliver a truly immersive lab experience accessible across desktop, mobile, and web platforms.
More about this simulation
A standout aspect of my role was the creation and integration of realistic sound effects for each interactive element within the virtual lab. From the nuanced sounds of handling lab equipment to the distinct audio signatures of liquids being poured, these carefully designed soundscapes significantly enhance the realism and engagement of the simulation.
Tackling the challenges of cross-platform compatibility and seamless user experience, I played a crucial role in programming the core simulation mechanics, designing the levels, and implementing an intuitive UI/UX. This required not only technical proficiency but also a keen understanding of user behaviour and educational needs.
My contributions extended beyond just software development to encompass sound design, level design, and UI/UX implementation. This multidisciplinary approach was instrumental in overcoming obstacles like ensuring consistent performance across different platforms and creating an interface that is both user-friendly and scientifically accurate.
This project is a testament to my dedication to creating comprehensive, multisensory educational tools. Through leveraging advanced technology, I aim to transform learning experiences, making them more interactive, accessible, and effective. The positive feedback from users, highlighting the engaging and informative nature of the simulation, stands as a testament to the project's success in achieving these goals."
