A sample AR game created for a hands-on Vuforia Workshop at GDC 2018 hosted at the Unity Offices. The Game requires two cards - a Pins Card and a Bowling Ball Card. The Pins Card contains 10 bowling pins and the Bowling Ball Card contains a bowling ball. The physical orientation of the card determines the angle that the Bowling Ball will be bowled and the speed of the swipe on the screen determines the speed of the bowling ball.

AR has some unique UX challenges as there is a "setup" phase similar to traditional board or card games. The game starts with a video explaining to the user how to setup the cards in order to play the game.

Responsibility: All game design, game mechanics, workshop structure and final presentation.

Vinny DaSilva discusses how to use Static Code Analysis tools to improve code quality throughout the development process, how to customize Static Code Analysis to fit teams specific needs and workflows, and how to integrate with Continuous Integration systems to give developers continuous feedback.

This is a demo to show how a virtual home holographic assistant can help provide education, guidance and step by step instructions for the care of a Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC line):

• Using gaze you can identify supplies before you start a procedure.
• Using spatial recognition a hologram is placed over the arm so you know where the PICC is inserted.
• Using the spatial sound you always know where your holographic avatar is to ask questions at any time.

Responsibilities: All programming required for project.

In this session, we discuss challenges and potential pitfalls that can occur when working with a diverse set of hardware within the Unity3D platform. We tackle hardware such as the Oculus Rift, Omnidirectional Treadmills, Joysticks, and Webcams. Each piece of hardware comes with its own set of challenges. I discuss how we overcame some of these obstacles within Unity3D.

While working at Ohsome Interactive, Vinny had the pleasure to contribute to an amazing Virtual Reality project. The VR Maze used an omnidirectional treadmill and various other systems which was the base of of a talk at Unite 2015.

Responsibilities: All hardware integrations including Oculus DK2, Wizdish, Automated Camera system and additional accessible controls.

"Ever wish you could change the outcome of any football / soccer game ever played? Well with Soccer Revenge now you can. Life has suddenly become a lot less stressful."

Available on iOS and Android made for Natty Bits

Responsibilities: Fixed various bugs and gameplay issues, implemented ads and analytics systems and configured Continuous Integration.

PresentR taps Microsoft's Kinect to analyze a presentation, scrutinizing everything from poor posture to counting how many times you say "um." Founded in 2013, PresentR's tech evaluates a user's eye contact, gestures, voice and posture to offer constructive feedback.

Responsibilities: All initial Research and Development for first MVP evaluating poses and quality of speech. Leveraged both XNA and WPF, created initial designs (not reflected on video) and evaluation systems.
