MAP VISUALIZATION WITH UNREAL ENGINE AND A-FRAME

Nicholas Bottone

This semester, I focused my two projects around collaborative map data visualization, since I thought this would provide the most satisfying visualizations in virtual reality, since they would be spatial.�

I started off with Unreal Engine. The graphics capabilities were top notch, but the networking was too complicated to figure out, so I moved to using A-Frame.�

A-Frame allowed me to have really deep control over how my multi-user functionality worked, since I had direct access to the clients and the server.

In an extensible way, I was able to focus on perfecting the avatars, nametags, and differentiating colors that allowed user interaction and collaboration to thrive.
