Finally! Everything ready to submit and particle systems were floating around our studio space. I am utterly thankful to Eliane Touma and her help on testing, patience, and her immense support to me!

Something happened, and I still don't know why. The project after been exported a build, the project was corrupted. Apparently, some values on an 'unknown array were missing.' After in-depth research of possible solutions, nothing came up. I decided to start again even when I had less than 70 hours to the deadline. Still thinking what kind of error I made.

Please reader, BE SAFE. Sometimes immersive experience leads to accidents. One of my volunteer testers was near to fall down the stairs in my dorm when he was walking towards one of the final versions of the AR cave.

Plane detection finally worked in an precise way, allowing these three portals been accessible even in the relative narrow corridors of my dorm. In this stage, I tested the use of gifs as I did with videos; worked pretty okay as well.

Really impressive how easy is to use a video (in this case a mp4) in a augmented reality experience. Just a plane and drag and drop. Check different elements on the inspector and is done.I'm pretty sure that loop the video will something higly demanded and used. Problem is the audio can't be perceived in a volumetric way; the volume is constant not depending on how far are you from the source.

Prebaked lightmaps didn't look really nice on AR outcomes. Even, it was impossible to remove the silver lining that the sphere had. The colours where much darker than in Unity viewer, and of course, the texture and the material performace was totally ruined. Definetely not a good idea.

GPS and poor stream data provoked floating assets displacing in the x axis. Extreme cases happened, as an example this low poly tree which even been located with a value of -3 in the y axis, it appeared around +2 y axis value. This was the preamble to say goodbye to the GPS located 3D assets methods.

Testmg the capbilities of my old Iphone SE was one of my objectives. I must say that created hyperbolic assets even bigger than buildings was funny. All this joy suddenly vanished when I realized that I spent around 4GB of my mobile phone data prepaid plan in one afternoon. Remember readers, WiFi or the the bankrupt.

Plane detection even can be hard in extremely open spots as soccer fields. In the second image, the generated terrain is mounted on a top of a low building. As soon I changed the angle, and use the sky to in contrast with the soccer field, it was easy to adjust.

In April of 2019, Ar FOundatio showed some really impressive upgrades of recognition and tranking surface possibilities. Feeling this hype, is not possible to not think about the idea of interacting with the totality of surfaces that surrounds you along the day.

Oculus Quest has been released for 399 american dollars. Is the first great VR standalone on the market but is still out of the budget for the average consumer. Is VR facing some kind of market pressure? If wii was a revolution introducing a lot of new public on the videogame market, what is failling avout VR? Just the prohibitive headset costs?

Can't wait to watch this inmersive documentary: "The Sun Ladies" "In 2014, ISIS fighters invaded Iraq and targeted the Yazidi community of Sinjar. The men were killed, and the women and girls taken as sex slaves. Some of the women who escaped started a female-only fighting unit called the Sun Ladies to bring back their sisters and protect the honor and dignity of their people. The Sun Ladies VR experience is an in-depth look at the personal journey of the captain of the Sun Ladies, Xate Singali. From her roots as a famous singer in Kurdistan to her new life as a soldier on the front lines, risking everything to stop the violence against her people."

Exmaple of how reflection and no contrast colors can affect to the plane detection. First image is a correct plane detection, on the other image software can't measure properly where id the floor. In this case there is another factor, the decline of the real terrain, that usually causes problems for a proper calculation.

Using the AR GPS location package, install different basic models by the campus to test the accuracy you received through the network service. Usually, users use the MapBox platform and its API, but for this, it was a great time at the time of programming, having no basic knowledge of C ++. Many thanks to Daniel Fortes, the developer of this unity package, who gave me a key to have two months free of use.
