Homework

1. As you experience the different demos you should think about the advantages of each platform, and where each is most applicable. Write one 8.5" x 11", 10pt font, normal margins equivalent amount of text (roughly 500 words) about the advantages of the different VR and AR platforms that were demoed (Smartphone based AR, Smartphone based 360 video, head mounted displays like the VIVE and Quest, room scale displays like CAVE2).

2. Create a public web page, which we will use to host your documentation on the course projects. Please create a landing page where in future you can add links to a number of other pages. One place to start, if you don't have a public website already, is people.uic.edu (https://people.uic.edu/). You can use UIC's vpn (http://accc.uic.edu/service/vpn) along with 2 factor authentication (https://accc.uic.edu/tag/anyconnect) to mount this directory on your personal computer for ease of moving files around (smb://<yourID>.people.uic.edu/). You can use any other hosting service you wish, but these pages must be publicly viewable by everyone in the class at least until the end of the course. You can use any publicly available templates as long as you cite them, or create your own. (Ideally this web page should have at least your name and the course name/number).

Give in the URL of your webpage on page 2 of your 1-page write up on the different VR and AR Platforms.
