Application of VR technology to organize, define and function the scene for interaction within 3D space. Technological procedure of applying extended reality with marker method and positioning method using GPS systems and gyroscopes. Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) methods in augmented reality applications. Creating a user interface for navigating and managing an interactive 3D model. Preparation of special effects in VR and AR. Work on creation of 3D ambiances with real-time software tools. Tools for creating interactive visualizations: Unity 3D, Unreal Engine, TurnTool, Adobe Premier.

Teaching methods:

Lectures in classroom and exercises in a computer laboratory. Consultations. During the semester students work on 2 tasks: creating scenes for VR and AR with user interface and special effects. Tasks are evaluated and grades are pre-examined. Students go to the oral part of the exam and defend the work, using HMD set and mobile applications. Assessment of the exam is based on the attendance of lectures and exercises, task making and oral defense of work.
