Map chat to physical affordances (Record / Receive buttons) and an in-scene transcript. What Stack: Unity (Quest 2), XR Interaction Toolkit, Mixamo, OpenAI (Whisper + GPT). Loop: Record → Transcribe (Whisper) → Reflect (GPT) → Show/Play reply → Continue. Scene: Minimal, soft lighting; seated avatar with simple mouth motion.Next&nbsp;Emotion-reactive room: simple rules first (color/light shift with sentiment).Frictionless voice loop: pre-selected mic, inline transcription, auto-advance turns.Embodied reply polish: basic viseme lip-sync + idle breathing/gaze; one calm TTS voice.Lightweight memory &amp; safety: local session log + “not crisis care” link, optional save.

We presented at NYVR (July 2025)! Here are our slides. Why Horizon’s player base favors playful, snackable loops; a whimsical flight mechanic felt differentiated. Goal: test a simple pick-up and deliver core loop that’s teachable in seconds. How Flight implementation: the player “wears” the bird; movement is driven by simple physics for stable control. Asset pipeline: fast 2D-to-3D using ChatGPT + Meshy; lightweight 2D HUD and custom leaderboard. Build constraints: in-editor co-editing, auto-multiplayer, cross-device playtests; modular scripts and strict naming to manage world caps. What Core loop: start at the delivery station, mount the stork, grab a baby package, fly to the right mom, earn a score on the HUD and leaderboard. Extras: a baby-bird “intern” companion follows the player. Stack: Horizon Worlds editor, TypeScript, simple physics helpers, in-world UI. So What In-app authoring and auto-multiplayer made iteration fast without external networking. Constraints (object/vertex caps, sync quirks) encouraged modular scripting and clear ownership. AI-assisted asset generation materially shortened turnaround without blocking gameplay tests. Next UX polish: clearer onboarding, richer feedback, and lightweight progress tracking. Art and audio: unified visual language, interactive SFX. Content: new biomes (desert, ocean, polar) and additional animal sets. &nbsp; Software: Horizon Worlds Desktop Editor, TypeScript, Rhino, Blender, Meshy AI https://shuang-bi.com/GeoquestAR Tue, 25 Jun 2024 20:24:45 +0000 Shuang Bi https://shuang-bi.com/GeoquestAR GeoquestAR Tags: Augmented Reality, NREAL glasses,&nbsp;Interactive Storytelling,&nbsp;Location-Based Gaming Time: two weeks (2024) This project was built at 2024 MIT Reality Hack in a team of 5.

Star Evolvement and Interactions https://shuang-bi.com/Blocks-Explorer Mon, 19 Jun 2023 19:21:11 +0000 Shuang Bi https://shuang-bi.com/Blocks-Explorer Blocks Explorer Tags: Virtual Reality, Lego, Building Block Game, Spatial Design, VR architectural experience, Material Menu Time: two weeks (2023) Architects have always used physical model-making to explore materials, forms and to iterate through design ideas. Combining this process with LEGO games, this application empowers designers and users alike to unleash their creativity in spatial design with AR and VR technologies. Users begin by playing premade building blocks in their physical environment using passthrough mode and then go explore their design at a full scale in VR. With a simple toggle, this app switches smoothly between the top-down world-maker perspective and the immersive first-person viewpoint, allowing users to unify the overall design language and refine the material details.
