Objectives
The objective of this subject is to delve deeper into the programming knowledge necessary to address the development of an interactive project in real time, whether it is a video game or an application. serious game.
We also want to emphasize the importance of working as a team and making use of version control tools as well as tasks related to project management.
Learning outcomes
- Understand the main entities that Unity uses to develop a game and how they communicate with each other.
- Learn about the Unity project structure to be able to create versions.
- Learn about the interaction of input/output devices that interact in an augmented reality (AR) or virtual reality (VR) video game.
- Understands the needs of a game and knows how to program the data structures necessary to develop it.
- Show skills to develop a game, whether augmented reality (AR) or virtual reality (VR).
- Develop creative and innovative communication interfaces.
Competencies
General skills
- Combine scientific knowledge with technical skill and technological resources to deal with difficulties in professional practice.
- Desire to take part in lifelong learning, innovate, create value and acquire new knowledge.
Specific skills
- Analyze, design and implement applications for the web, mobile devices, video games or general purposes, using programming languages and development tools.
- Apply techniques and tools of artistic expression and graphic representation with creative spatial awareness through digital technology.
Content
- Analysis of the Unity 2020.xi video game engine and new features
- Using Unity's own version control: Collaborate
- Collaborative project management with Unity
- Using the Vuforia SDK for managing augmented reality projects
- Generation of executables for both Android and iOS devices
- Using the Oculus SDK and Viveport SDK and other input/output peripherals with Unity for virtual reality
Evaluation
The assessment is continuous. During the course there are tests, practical assignments and two projects. The weighting is as follows:
- Augmented reality project: 35% (group work of 2-3 people)
- Virtual reality project: 35% (group work of 2-3 people)
- Augmented reality exam: 10% (individual work)
- Virtual reality exam: 10% (individual work)
- Project monitoring documentation: 10%
If the average of the projects is failed, a final practical exam must be taken to recover one.
Exams and project monitoring documentation are not recoverable.
Methodology
Theoretical explanation is combined with practical exercises in class.
