  Reeds

• 

  Visualizing a tree with branches using the open source app for AVP, Vision Pro Blender Live Streamer.

Inspiration

1. From the story of "The Tree and the Reed" (or "The Oak and the Reeds"), told by many cultures in different ways.
2. Motivation: building cross-cultural communication experiences, one of which is multi-language.

What it does

An XR experience to learn about this history in multiple languages.

How we built it

Blender, Unity, STYLY

Challenges we ran into

1. Designing user experience regarding language learning (audio, visual)
2. Testing visuals on Apple Vision Pro
3. Implementing Spatial Audio that works in Unity, STYLY, and Apple Vision Pro

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Using an open source app for AVP, Vision Pro Blender Live Streamer (https://github.com/SouthwestAir/Vision-Pro-Blender-Live-Streamer) to test the 3d model in AR.

Learned many tools, whether we ended up using them or not.

What we learned

The tools we were debating on whether to use or not.

• Used: Blender, Unity, STYLY, Apple Vision Pro, (a bit of) Xcode -> Vision Pro Blender Live Streamer
• Didn't use but got a chance to learn: Spline, A-Frame

What's next for synth~cerely

Continue building this project to add more audio, visual, and interactivity that allows users to listen to this story in more languages and learn them.

This is an ongoing project. More info to be updated.
