Media & Interaction Designers must be able to create three-dimensional objects and worlds and represent and use them in a contemporary manner. This includes modeling, animating and rendering objects in space, as well as displaying them in virtual worlds.

1. Basics of 3D modeling
   • Box, polygon and spline modeling
   • Modifiers, generators and deformers
2. Differences between surface and volume modeling
   • Presentation of various modeling tools
   • Introduction to volume modeling
3. Texturing, animation, rendering
   • Texturing methods
   • Materials
   • Light
   • Keyframe animations
   • Rendering methods
4. VR/AR applications
   • Basics of VR/AR
   • Introducing important development tools and platforms
   • Development of VR/AR applications

The total workload for the module is 150 hours (see also "ECTS credit points and grading").

• Presentation or
• Project Report, written

• Field work / Experimental work

Types of exams for graded exams:
Presentation: 10 minutes; Associated project report (written): 10 pages per person

Types of examinations for ungraded examinations:
Experimental Work: Submission of approx. 5 milestones; Pass on completing 85% of the tasks

The students who have successfully studied this module know the techniques of modelling, texturing, animation and representation of three-dimensional objects. Furthermore, they can develop applications to display these objects in virtual reality and augmented reality.

The students who have successfully studied this module are able to create virtual reality and augmented reality applications with their own three-dimensional content.

The students can recognize solvable tasks and problems and find possible solutions through virtual reality.

The students apply the acquired knowledge in the form of 3D applications. They solve detailed problems by experimenting with possible approaches and technical solutions.

The students independently create new types of three-dimensional objects and worlds and associated applications in order to present them in virtual worlds.

As part of a thesis, which is carried out in small groups, the students develop skills in the areas of teamwork and project management. You have to work out a complete content-related and technical concept together and coordinate the team tasks in a meaningful way.

The students are able to create professional 3D objects and worlds on the computer and to use them for scientific purposes.
