Physical Fabrication

Persephone VR aims to offer open-source virtual reality hardware and software equal in performance to leading brands, with the added benefits of user replication and freedom of modification. The functional goal being used in development is the Oculus Quest Two, capabilities of note include inside out spatial and controller tracking, lens and screen quality, and ease of use. The current prototype includes a base headset with full lens focusing, accelerometer data, and two cameras for optical tracking. Future goals include optical tracking software, improved ergonomics, and higher quality displays.

I felt very successful in this studio and feel I grew both my physical fabrication and design skills as well as exploring a wide variety of concepts and approaches to solving problems. During the course of this studio I grew a much better understanding of the field of VR and the possible future scope of our development. I was able to work hand in hand with Hunter to effectively integrate my hardware development and his software development to create an interconnected system. We are both already considering how we will be moving forward with development and have a robust vision for the future.
