Open Source Projects
Arbitrary Remote Control System (ARCS)
My bachelor thesis in early 2020 revolved around web and browser based virtual reality experiences, that were made accessible by combining several devices into a sigle Human Computer Interface (HCI).
You can use two smartphones, a smartphone and a laptop, or theoretically any connected device to control the VR experience and enjoy all degrees of freedom.
Front-end: Vue.js v3, Three.js and WebRTC through PeerJS
See DemoGitHubScroll-Snap Slider
JavaScript enhanced scroll-snapping used for sliders/carousels.
The goal is to not repeat myself when implementing simple sliders, but also not use one of the huge libraries out there.
Technologies: TypeScript, ES Modules and Classes
See DemoGitHubExperiment (WIP): Vue.js v3 + Three.js Animation
Scrubbing through a keyframed animation, exploration with WASD/Arrow keys controls, and orbit controls. Interaction and reactivity managed in Vue.js.
Technologies: Blender, Vue.js v3, Three.js
