Course detail
Virtual Reality
FSI-V0R-K Acad. year: 2023/2024 Winter semester
The subject will provide knowledge for students in area of theoretical
basics and practical implementation of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR).
Student will learn to transfer digital 3D model into virtual or real scene
and further work with it. Used are known environments Unity for VR and Vuforia for AR.

Syllabus
Exercises are divided into four thematic blocks:
Block A: Introduction, Hardware demonstrations (headsets, motion sensors, feedback and latency, calibration, VR applications examples)
Block B: ABB Robot Studio ( programming of robot motion in VR, simulation of robotic assembly line, digital twin visualization)
Block C: The Unity environment (modeling of environment and integration of VR observer,
model of robot, kinematics of robot model, connection with dynamic simulation)
Block D: Mixed reality and Vuforia (combination of Unity and Vuforia for creation, detection of printed 2D code and augmenting the image with 3D model,
detection of 3D object and 3D model rendering).
