VR Application - Look to the Sky

Hi guys, I like to present some project that Ive’ been work on here at Samsung SIDIA in Brazil.

We have a partnership with the SRA ( Samsung Research america) to develop new features to a open source platform called GVRF ( Gear VR Framework) created by the SRA.

You’re able to set a sky view from any city in the world by typing the city name or you can also rotate the sky to search constellations and stars, we are using a external provider that give us the correct positions of the user by tracking him via GPS, and If you’re connected to a wifi network, you can select a city using the 3D keyboard, all in real time.


I was responsible to create all of the graphics, except some 2D elements.
I used Blender to crate all of the 3D and some of the 2D graphics that you’re seeing in real time, all the textures were baked using Blender internal render and composed in Photoshop to be integrated into GVRF shaders.


The application it’s still in development, but we’re uploading to the oculus store a 1.00 build real soon. :smiley:
