Exploring Digital Human creation with Character Creator 4 and Unity

Spatial is a Metaverse platform that allows users to meet and socialise at virtual events in the Metaverse. Currently, that means online in the browser or through apps and virtual reality. They have recently released a toolkit for Unity that allows developers to build environments and publish them to Spatial so anyone can visit and explore. Their toolkit also includes interactive components that allow for synchronized objects, variables, among many other features.

Following on from my earlier Lab Post about City-Scale Augmented Reality, I thought I would expand on the tests I have done to see how it could benefit Digital-Out-of-Home (DOOH) campaigns

Snap has released a new feature called City-scale that allows creators to place virtual content in locations without the user having to scan and create the mesh in advance.

The Microsoft Azure Kinect depth camera is a piece of kit that is easy to set up and hugely rewarding. I've already shown how the depth camera to be used for creative effect but it also has body tracking capability that is fun to explore.

Lately we have been dipping our toes into the world of Photogrammetry. In particular, the Penshurst Place and Gardens project involved scanning sculptures and artefacts for inclusion in the app. More on this in the cases study here.

Welcome to weald.world. We've been exploring the Metaverse and prototyping what a virtual space could look like for Weald Creative to inhabit.
