Week 3 Sunday

This video shows what I have done with the level. It mostly shows the forest part of the level.

I added material to my building

Week 3 Saturday

I finalized the jungle level. I added trees and a pond. I also started on my buildings but I need to add material to them.

Week 2 Saturday

I have extended my terrain. I plan on having multiple environments such as buildings, grass plain, jungle, and a snowy mountain.

Week 2 Thursday

I updated and edited the terrain to make it more mountain like.  Below is a video showing the terrain.

Week 2 Monday

This week I am starting my main project for the class. I am building a video game level using UDK which is the Unreal Development Kit. I haven't worked with UDK that much so it like learning something new. I plan on using some tutorials I found and using the documentation site for help.










This is the terrain I started. I added grass material to it.

In innovative display technology, I am really interested in the Displair, which is an air display. It uses water vapors to create a moving display and whatever is on your tablet or computer is projected on the display. Users can interact with the Displair just as they would any touchscreen. The Displair also has a camera which can pick up movements and users can also interact with it that way. It doesn't appear that the Displair will be for consumers at this point because of the price ($15,000). It is expected to be used by advertisers for now.


One of the newest innovations of gaming is the Project Shield which is by Nvidia. It uses a controller similar to the XBOX 360 and a touch screen which is powered by the Android market. Users can stream pc games to Project  Shield using their home network. There isn't any information of how it will cost, it might depend on other future technologies. It seems like Project Shield will create a new wave for future gaming technology.


Also in technology news the game Minecraft is a good example of augmented reality. It now has an app on IOS for Iphone users were they can take their designs and put them in a really environment. Users can also share their photos with their friends.
