This summer my lab mate, Lionel, and I have built a Pit Demo for immersive environments at our lab.Users are supposed to wear an Head-Mounted Display and walk on a narrow plank of wood. The main purpose of the demo is to create an experience so that users feel like walking on a real pit with the risk of falling off. It’s really cool if you haven’t tried one of these VR demos :)
Lionel is navigating the pit. The left view is what he is seeing.
The environment was modeled using Blender, textured using GLM and put in to an immersive environment powered by Vrui VR Toolkit.
And here is the video on youtube. Enjoy !
