392256 ISY Project: Implementing touchable virtual reality serious games (Pj) (SoSe 2020)

Virtual reality (VR) has been widely used in the entertainment domain, but becomes recently relevant in other domains like arm rehabilitation after stroke. Hence the interest in interacting with the VR by touch grows strongly. The task during the ISY project is to develop a game-like VR scenario, in which humans can interact haptically with the environment.
The scenario will be created using the game engine Unity and the latest version of the exoskeleton Dexmo [1,2], which can simulate a virtual reality with force feedback.

In case this would not find enough interest for a team project, this project proposal would be also offered (in reduced/modified form)
[x] as individual project
[x] as project for 2-3 students

Please note: this project can be done during the summer term despite the Corona situation from home. We will do weekly meetings via zoom. If you are interested in the project, please contact us.
