WHAT IS THE PROJECT?
“Vacina Estética” is a VR Art installation designed in partnership with the Brazilian research group on Art, Science and Technology, the LabFront. The installation consists of a three-dimensional small hospital room modelled in Blender 3D software. The visual effects and textures reinforce the entrapment aspects within the stereoscopic immersion point of view. After the 3D modelling, the programming was performed in the Unity 3D game engine with C# programming language. To perform the stereoscopy effect, the Google Cardboard framework was used in conjunction with the Samsung Galaxy S8+ cell phone with the Android operating system (API 28). The interaction with the graphic elements of the installation takes place through the movements of the interactor’s head, which allows him to move internally within the room. Parts of a poem are on the room’s walls, allowing the user to discover it as he walks through the space through light and shadow effects developed thru a particle system.
