Workshop at Shanghaitech
Lab: Uwe Rieger & Yinan Liu
DIV Lab: Hua Yang
​
With the two day workshop the arc/sec Lab gave an introduction into Cross-Reality design and interactive systems at ShanghaiTech University.
The first part of the workshop offered a hands on experience of how to use Augmented Reality as a construction tool for complex structures. The spatial geometries were developed with the 3D modelling software Rhino . In the following the Microsoft HoloLens was used to assemble a 20 m long structure using paper straws and 3d printed joints.
​
The second part of the workshop explored how to populate the physical structure with interactive digital animations using Vuforia, Unity 3D and the HoloLens. The combination of step 1 and step 2 created a holographic ‘coral reef’ which was responsive to the movements and actions of the viewer.
