Nature and Pet Therapy

  Calming landscape

Inspiration

Inspiration comes from the HuggingFace Deep RL Course made by Mingding Han! The scenery and cute dog inspired me to create an equally cute and beautiful environment!

What it does

It allows the user to have their own comforting and relaxing space to slow down, collect their thoughts, and enjoy the simple things in life.

How we built it

I built the environment using Unity and assets through the Unity asset store. I followed a simple tutorial on how to shape, color, and fill in the terrain as well as help from the best volunteers in the world!

Challenges we ran into

Bugs in the software that made the camera fall through the terrain. This was very challenging to work with as we weren't able to figure out the exact problem but had to switch over to a completely new world.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Accomplishments that I'm proud of was being able to learn a lot about how to use Unity after not knowing anything about it prior! As well as getting to work on my own, I'm proud of sticking it out after many challenges with the software and being completely lost sometimes.

What we learned

Learned how to create the terrain that I want, how to plug in audio, how to set the light/sky, how to import, manipulate, and use assets.

What's next for Nature and Pet Therapy

While I faced some challenges along the way, I feel happy for how the landscape's turned out! For next, I would want to include animations for the dog and perhaps a hike trail with a water fall at the end. Having a trees with falling leaves is a bucket list! And so is flying butterflies in the morning and fireflies at night!
