How we built a spatial design platform that fuses virtual reality with physical motion-tracked models
Challenge
Forget costly prototypes for every iteration when designing and developing new spaces! Hyper's goal was to allow users to instantly and accurately preview their design proposals.Whether testing a new material within a car, or adjusting the interior configuration of a hotel room, you should be able to see and feel results in seconds.
Process
Build Hyper from SDK to a website
We were approached by Unit9 to function as a tech and creative partner for the project. Hyper required a flawless blend of multiple technologies, like VR headsets, real-time motion tracking of various objects, and allowing for haptic experiences on top of that. Using Unity engine and top VR development technology, we had to create a bridge between the tangible and the virtual.
Solution
Industry-changing mixed reality design service
Hyper offers a more sustainable design process that eliminates the need to build and rebuild complex prototypes, whilst reducing sign-off times and total spend. We had to overcome some pains with the still nascent VR technology, and research optimal conditions for minimal eye strain. We have also created tools to take advantage of tracking user’s hand movements and tested the solution on scaled-up mock-ups of aircraft interiors.
