Week 2 Update

It’s week 2 and Team mixAR is doing well!

This week has seen each member of the team begin to work in earnest on the project. However, there is a lot of setup to do on any project, so that has taken priority this week.

On the programming front, we have begun setting up our Unity project, and getting code running on the Hololens with good success.  This means that next week we can start writing code for the project and testing on device, which is really exciting for us!

Art is progressing well, with a slight focus on branding  and marketing materials still being present.  Our main character is being concepted, and our logo is being constantly updated and improved on as well.

Design-wise, we have been researching everything from professional checkers matches, to AI methods for calculating emotion, to psychology papers on emotion in general.  We have been compiling as much of this research as we can in our team’s google drive folder.  

Our first sprint planning will be Monday morning first thing, so next week we will really be ramping into production on our project, and we’re all excited.  So stay tuned for next week’s update, hopefully it’s as good.
