Step into the next level of virtual reality with this immersive, hands-on course led by architect and media artist Sohrab Samsam. Building on the foundations of VR creation covered in Sohrab’s Winter Season 2024 course, this extension takes you deeper into the world of interactive VR using TouchDesigner. You’ll explore advanced techniques for building interactive VR experiences, integrating real-time user inputs, and manipulating virtual environments in response to movement, gaze, and interaction.
Throughout the course, you’ll work with various content formats including stereo vs. mono, 180° vs. 360°, and equirectangular vs. cubic projections. You’ll dive into creating both pre-rendered VR content—like 360° videos ready for platforms such as YouTube—and real-time, interactive VR experiences by connecting headsets like Meta Quest 2 and 3 directly to your live TouchDesigner networks.
By the end of the course, you’ll be equipped to design and build interactive VR worlds that respond to your users’ inputs, creating deeply engaging experiences. Whether you’re looking to craft virtual art installations, immersive educational experiences, or cutting-edge interactive entertainment, this course will give you the tools and knowledge to make your VR visions a reality.
