Come join the XR Club for its final event of the semester! In this special event, we will recognize our outstanding members, recap the semester, and allow people to try out nearly all of our XR equipment to their heart's content. We'll give special thanks for all of your support over the past semester, and we can't wait to see you next year!

Maybe you're a beginner at Unity and C#, or perhaps you are cracked and have been making games every day since you were born (please be friends with me). In either case, we think we have something to offer you to level up your skills! In this workshop, we will cover more in-depth topics like Unity Events, coroutines, UniTask, C# design patterns, and much more.

Have you dreamed of making your own virtual reality game? In this workshop, we cover the basics of creating a virtual-reality application within Unity. Learn why Unity is utilized for virtual-reality games, how to set up a basic scene, and create simple interactions within. Towards the end, we will build a live demo that utilizes the concepts that we will have demonstrated. If you would like to follow along, bring your laptop and make sure that a Unity 2022 or higher is installed!

We will discuss the answers to these questions while you learn the basics about computer graphics, shaders, and how they power video games. Then, you will employ those basic concepts to create your very own visual effects through Unity’s shader graph. No prior experience is required for this workshop, we welcome all who are interested!
