Virtual reality based 3D modeling concept exampleBovcon, Narvika (Mentor) Virtual realityVRHTCViveUnreal Engine3Dgraphicscontent creationmodelingretopologyapplicationgraphical user interfaceGUImenusbuttonsmeshtransformationsThis thesis illustrates a concept for a virtual reality based application design and implements a 3D modeling application using VR technology. The application itself allows the user to perform 3D modeling while moving around VR space in various ways. The models may be created from scratch and manipulated by different tools or imported as well as exported during application runtime. Prior to implementation presentation, the reader gets familiarized with terminology and concepts of 3D modeling field. Furthermore, the implementation addresses more abstract thesis questions about how to make use of limited input as efficiently as possible, how to interact with objects in VR space intuitively, how to design a versatile 3D GUI system which is handy for the user, etc. The latter goal speaks of the necessity for striving toward new ideas to make VR as useful as possible in different industries. Technology is relatively new and a lot of its potential undiscovered. The application is written in C++, using Unreal Engine 4 framework and HTC Vive hardware for VR. It covers intended 3D modeling goals while also presenting some interesting and generic ways of using VR in this type of applications.20232023-02-18 12:20:00Diplomsko delo/naloga144393VisID: 35011COBISS_ID: 142209027sl
