Description

In the spirit of COVID-19 remote learning, we wanted to create synchronous entertainment done remotely – the first ITP Sensor Battle. We are a group of 5 members located in 13-hour-difference time zones and we created a live sensor battle entertainment connected via UDP server. This is a match among 3 players to determine the best and strongest sensor. 3 players, in the USA, are battling with 3 different sensors – joystick, gesture and muscle sensors – connected to the battle (UDP) server to control their respective RC cars in Beijing battle ground. The battle ground and competing RC cars are in Beijing and players and their sensors are in the USA.

The team ideated 4 different gameplays to determine the battle, but after putting to the vote to the ITP class of 2022, we decided on the Paintball gameplay. Each RC car has a canvas and a paint gun mounted; and the players eliminate the others by shooting the paint on the other players’ mounted canvases.

Technicality aside, we imagined ourselves as extraterrestrial beings representing different sensor communities. The Sensor Battle is taking place at Star-dium stadium on the remote frontier planet of Batuu. Hope you enjoy! *Vulcan Salute*

Much of our post Covid19 life is now spent online in video conference settings.

How can we make those experiences more exciting and engaging?

3D_land is an exploration of webrtc, peer2peer, and threejs technologies and how they can be used to create a more exciting video chat experience.

Can this template be used for more engaging remote learning?

Can it be used for video conferencing?

Or is it just a place to explore with friends?

3D_land sets you in the world of a 3D space island. Participants can explore the world on their own or converse and explore with each other.

They can change their appearance by applying various video filters.

Proximity to other participants allow for improved audio and allow participants to “tattoo” or give gif gifts to other nearby participates.
