LaMar University Virtual Map Dr. Stefan Andrei |Ankur Shah|Bharat kumar Tejwan|Chandrakant Rudani |Kishor Datta Gupta|Milin Joshi| Lamar University Problem Implementation Publication Any difficulty in design, coding and testing a modification should signal the need for re-design or re-coding. Modifications should fit easily into isolated and easy-to-find modules. If they do not, some re-design is probably needed. Modifications should become easier to make as the iterations progress. If they are not, there is a basic problem such as a design flaw or a proliferation of patches. Patches should normally be allowed to exist for only one or two iterations. Patches may be necessary to avoid redesigning during an implementation phase. Many universities provide 2D or 3D maps and even interactive maps. However, these maps do not provide a complete “interaction” with the user.

Procedure Solution Conclusion This platform provides a virtual view of the Lamar campus with buildings of interest. The avatar-based navigation game for the Lamar University campus can be a platform for Lamar University that serves numerous purposes alongside its main goal of navigation. We designed and developed a virtual realistic campus of Lamar University using agile software developing process. With a rapid prototyping, we converted each physical building into avatar-based virtual buildings. Our team is dedicatedly working on future enhancements and constantly keeping an eye on new requirements that can be helpful to everyone. Our team is continuously putting efforts on making virtual campus of Lamar University to be more realistic. Project Overview This project uses Unity’s Navigation & Path finding system to reach the selected destination along with several different components which makes Unity unique from different 3D games software. There are certain definitions from Unity software which we would like to introduce for the simplicity to understand the implementation of our project are then used in the classroom as teaching aids. Future Works We started work making 360 VR compatible and also prepare for Gps tracking.
