IXDE 311 Mapping the World

3 credits 67.5 hours
300 level undergraduate course

Projection-mapping is an exciting new avenue for the exploration of spatial augmented reality (a type of augmented reality that is not screen-based and instead uses light projection). Projection-mapping offers the opportunity to channel the practice of any design discipline into a new expressive language. Projection-mapping projects enable illustrators, graphic designers and interaction designers to experiment with motion, immersion and interaction through large-scale light projection installations, using surfaces and 3D objects as the canvas. Students will also experiment with screen based augmented reality using software such as the Unity game engine and scripting.

Priority enrollment for Interaction Design majors.
