Get ready for the bootcamp

Our VR Development Course is very intense. To save time, and to get all participants on a level playing field, our students have to complete the free C# Coding Course on learning platform before starting the bootcamp. This course takes around 20 hours and teaches:

  • Constructing logic in C#
  • Methods, parameters, containers in C#
  • Object oriented programming concepts
  • Delegates coroutines, lambda expressions

This free course also serves you to get a feel if you enjoy working as a VR prototype. We’re in the beginning of VR development, and, if you’re a designer, or developer, or product manager- learning the basics of VR development and coding will be essential to your future job (and you should make sure that you love it!).

Developer tools & workflow

Welcome to the future! We introducing you to Unity, the major Virtual Reality editor and its most essential features. You will learn to set up your first Unity based Virtual Reality scenes and get an overview on how to import assets and connect Unity with other tools.

Coding with C# - Fundamentals

Learning to script is different, and easier than learning software programming. Unity is doing most of the programming aspects and running the VR application for you, but you still have to learn to control the gameplay using C# scripts to control game object's behaviors.

Key Concepts of Physics and Algebra

Math skills are critical in 3D environments – but also fun to learn in Unity!  Learn the foundational 3D math concepts like linear algebra, vectors, matrices, trigonometry - and apply them directly to your Unity Virtual Reality project.

Animations, Particles and Shaders

Level up your project and make it shine. With animations, particle systems (used for all kinds of fuzzy randomized simulations) and the basics of Shaders with Shader Graph, which lets you author shaders easily by building them visually and seeing the results in real-time, you will be able to get from a prototype to a polished and rounded project.

Your First VR Project

Now it’s time to finalize your first prototype! You will design and develop a VR application from scratch. This combines all the knowledge and practical skills you have gained throughout the whole 8 weeks foundations course into a single experience created by yourself.

Advanced VR

Acvanced VR development techniques will make your scenes stunning and more immersive. You will use elevate your already gained linear algebra knowledge from before to create physically correct simulations and scenarios.

The XR Interaction Toolkit

You will learn how to use Interactors and Interactables, as these allow us to hover, select/grab and activate objects. You will gain a solid understanding of the differences of all Interactor and Interactables types. Connecting all these events to sound and haptics is key to immersing your users. 

The Art of Optimization

When developing for mobile devices, especially for VR, performance optimization is critical to run smoot experiences. That's why we dedicated a full chapter to VR optimization techniques to improve application performance, not only for VR, but for all mobile devices.

Turn ideas into VR Prototypes in 8 weeks!

Projects Phase is the ultimate experience of the course: invent, pitch, design, code and deploy an original project in teams of 3 or 4 people during the two final weeks. You will have to go through all the process from the idea to the live app in production, ready to be tested on the market!

  • Define the Product's target users and unique value proposition
  • Build an interactive prototype with Figma to validate the UX
  • Split the work in your teams by defining and assigning user stories
  • Code the VR application from scratch, test it and refine it
  • Deploy your app on a production environment
  • Pitch your product during the Demo Day!
