About

Built a 3D VR museum in Unity where users can walk around and interact with exhibits without being there physically. Most artworks and pieces are interactive, you can pick them up for a closer look.

The museum is modeled after the Chinese Heritage Centre (CHC) at Nanyang Technological University. Users can explore freely and take a self-guided tour. The 3D model was already available, so I focused on adding interactive features and building the VR experience in Unity using C#. Some objects needed remodelling and re-texturing because of version compatibility issues.

The goal was to make the VR experience genuinely better than walking through a physical museum, not just a gimmick.
