Description
This poster describes the re-creation of the green-energy production machines and the entire Alternative Energy Plant located in Crowley, Louisiana, in Virtual Reality. To achieve this, code was written in the JavaScript language using the Unity video game design engine. The end product is a completely immersive experience in which the user controls an in-game person who explores the plant. Complete with pop-up information boxes, the user is able to learn about each of the machines, turn the machines on and off, and view feedback based on their interactions.
