Worked on the following projects:VR Pedestrian SimulatorDeveloped a virtual reality (VR) pedestrian crossing simulator that allows researchers to study the effects of FOV on pedestrian decision-making in a controlled and realistic environment. The simulator utilizes the Unity game engine to create a realistic virtual world that simulates a busy intersection with dynamic traffic patterns. This research has the potential to improve pedestrian safety by identifying how FOV limitations affect pedestrian decision-making and informing the design of safer crosswalks and intersections.Drum kit simulatorDesigned a drum kit simulator in the Cave Automatic Virtual Environment (CAVE) to provide users with an immersive and realistic drumming experience. The drum kit simulator was showcased at the SIGGRAPH 2023 conference. Users were able to interact with the virtual drum kit and experience immersive drumming in the CAVE environment. The design and implementation of the drum kit simulator in the CAVE environment highlighted the potential of virtual reality for creating immersive and engaging experiences.
