Inspiration

The solar system is full of wonders. The sun continuously provides energy for life. Kids are always curious about the solar system. Learning about it with 3D models would make learning faster.

What it does

It is a flutter application that represents 3D models of the planets of our solar system. Kids also get to learn about the plants in the Learn More section. Once they think they are confident, they can test their knowledge with quiz questions.

How I built it

It is a Flutter application, so it is a cross-platform application. For the 3D models, Blender software was used. The application uses some plugins for better interactivity.

Challenges I ran into

3D models- After building the 3D models, it was very challenging to put them into the application. The original models (.obj) were not performing well. The outer texture of the models was gone once exported. So, other file-type models were exported ).glb), but this time their original shape was a bit distorted. The sunlight emission was no longer visible, It was as if ball of lava.

Plugins- Finding proper plugins that can support the 3D models was very time-consuming.

What I learned

The project e helped me to learn more about Flutter and the the solar system works. It also helped me learn Blender software.

What's next for Talib

Better models can be added to the application. How students perform on the quiz can be analyzed and can be given suggestions accordingly.
