Mercedes-Benz

During my internship at Mercedes-Benz, I contributed to developing extended reality (XR) experiences by designing and implementing interactive scenarios with the Varjo XR-3, Unity, and Blender. My focus was on creating futuristic simulations that enhance user engagement and deliver immersive interactions for future mobility experiences. My responsibilities included designing multimodal interactions, modifying and animating 3D models in Blender, developing visual effects, and scripting interactive functions in Unity. Additionally, I took part in project planning using the OKR methodology, ensuring alignment with project goals and tracking progress effectively. This experience greatly strengthened my technical expertise in XR and deepened my understanding of user-centered design within XR environments.

My responsibilities included the following tasks:

• Conceptualizing relevant user cases and futuristic simulations for the Varjo XR-3 implementation 

• Implementing interactive augmented reality scenarios using Varjo XR-3 and Unity 3D 

• Researching and testing best practices for Unity settings

• Designing and implementing multimodal interaction control 

• Gesture control with Varjo XR-3 and Leap Motion 

• Modifying and animating 3D models in Blender 

• Creating visual effects with Unity's particle system 

• Writing and editing C# scripts in Unity for interactive extended reality scenarios 

• Developing and participating in project task planning using the OKR methodology
