With SEEDS VR you can experience the 180° animation "SEEDS" without going to a planetarium or building a dome. You just put on the VR glasses and find yourself in the virtual dome. | With SEEDS VR you can experience the 180° animation "SEEDS" without going to a planetarium or building a dome.

Furthermore SEEDS VR simulates the immersive stage design that is planned to be realised for the real dome. The project is therefore used in the design and development process of the actual fulldome show "SEEDS", including the development of the choreography for the live dancer. | Furthermore SEEDS VR simulates the immersive stage design that is planned to be realised for the real dome.

The virtual dome was created in Unity, using a sphere. In order to play a video on the inside of that sphere, a shader skript that flips the normals had to be added. | The virtual dome was created in Unity, using a sphere.

Another skript to add a "Third Person Camera" and therefore enable the spectator to "turn the head" inside of the virtual dome was coded and applied to the Main Camera. | Another skript (ThirdPersonCameraSkript) to add a "Third Person Camera" and therefore enable the spectator to "turn the head" inside of the virtual dome was coded and applied to the Main Camera. | ||

The idea that was formed in the animation spreads its light and inspiration into the analogue world.

These balls should therefore appear at a certain point | These balls should therefore appear at a certain point of the animation. To realize this, another skript (LightController) to switch on the visibility of these balls was added. To archieve that they appear in the very right moment, a "Coroutine" method with a delay is used. | ||
