Software research and testing. 

Complete research on potential software to use for visualizing earthquake data.��Finalize the dataset I will work with based on the ones I have researched. Finalize the location and data I will visualize (3-5 different earthquakes in an area)��Start wiki comparison page on Bezi vs Unity vs WebXR for haptic interaction

Project page and proposal document��Wiki software comparison page for haptic interactions (start compiling research here)

Finalize software and assessment --begin experimentation. ��Research stakeholders + current pitfalls in existing visualization models. 

Complete wiki comparison page on Bezi vs Unity vs WebXR for haptic interaction -- write an assessment summary for each software + create a comparative table for easy analysis across different criteria.��Finalize a software (or software) to use from the ones assessed based on my findings -- Most likely Unity, but could incorporate other software. Start experimenting with the software.��Complete research on stakeholder needs for earthquake data visualization (and current gaps in existing visualization, to figure out if AR could help fill those gaps)

Comparative table and summaries comparing software for integrating Meta Quest haptics into your development (WebXR, Bezi, Unity)

Assessment Criteria for Final Model. ��Start prototyping.

Create an assessment criteria and usability target for my final visualizations. ��Begin prototyping my first model (i.e. model with more focused variables).

Assessment criteria + usability target for my final haptic AR earthquake models

Began prototyping early

4/10/2025

Finalize a prototype. ��Research haptic integration into project.

Complete an initial prototype of my model -- prototype should display earthquake magnitude and scale (at minimum). Continue researching and working on haptic capability for the model.��Explore ability to turn seismographic data into haptic feedback.�

4/15/2025

Continue refining model + complete haptics integration.

Complete research on haptic integration into project -- compile research (tutorials, documentation, my own experimentation).��Complete all basic of prototype model (including haptic integration and user interaction features). ��Begin working on adding more parameters, such as depth, economic impact, physical impact zones, etc.

Tutorial on how to integrate haptics into a project in Unity (or additional software)

Pushed tutorial to later date to focus on development

4/17/2025

Complete model + all interactive features.��Class activity material preparation.

Complete model to ensure all parameters are appropritely visible and interactive.��Complete adding interactive features to both models (ability to scale, rotate, reposition).��Based on research (and seven scenarios paper), begin building class activity page. Finalize class activity instructions and google form

Class activity page + instructions

Earlier class activity preparation (for earlier activity)

4/22/2025

In class activity.

Conduct in-class activity.��Based on my project and research conducted, create a wiki page on real world applications of haptics in AR/VR (beyond earthquake data). �

Wiki page on applications of haptics and sensory stimuli in AR

​

4/24/2025

Evaluate results. Create tutorial for haptics integration.

Gather all class-activity results + other progress results (images, photos, videos, research, etc.) to compile into final project poster and presentation.��Complete Wiki page comparing development tools for mapping geospatial data (like earthquake data). Also complete wiki page for tutorial on how to integrate haptics into Unity project.

Wiki page on 3D mapping development tools for visualizing geospatial data (software/tool comparison + analysis)��Tutorial on how to integrate haptics into a project in Unity (or additional software)

More wiki pages added post class activity (instead of pre-class activity)

4/29/2025

Final project poster + presentation to summarize findings.

Complete final project poster and presentation slides (incorporate all remaining research, wiki additions, and evaluative portions).
