Strangeland+Vehicles

Welcome to Strangeland! Dive deeper into this captivating universe with "Strangeland+Vehicles", an innovative VR/AR project developed by Cornell Tech & Georgia Tech.

Project Overview

Strangeland is a virtual world created by Cornell Tech. Strangeland+Vehicles is a VR/AR

project by Georgia Tech that enhances Strangeland by introducing several kinds of

vehicles. This includes everything from scooters and wheelchairs to a specially designed

flying car that can drive on roads and fly like a drone. The project's goal is not just to place

these vehicles in the virtual world, but also to ensure that they perform properly and feel

realistic when people use them. We'll also research how users engage with these vehicles,

particularly self-driving ones, to learn more about how humans and machines coexist in

virtual settings.

Objectives

Dual Functionality of the flying vehicle: Functions as a regular car on the road and transitions to a drone-like vehicle for flying.
Interior and Control Design: Incorporates a typical steering wheel with an
innovative Xbox-style controller embedded for flying. The controller can be
docked back into the steering wheel after use.
Realistic Modeling and Movement: Detailed modeling of the vehicle for
realistic movement in the VR/AR environment.
