Virtual Reality (VR) simulation created using Unity with a focus on providing a safe,
interactive, and immersive environment in which users learn and practice wilderness
survival techniques. Set in a realistic forest environment, the game involves resource
gathering, hunger and thirst management, fire creation, cooking, and defending against
AI-powered wild animals. The simulation focuses on the necessity of environmental
awareness and decision-making under stress. The project beneficiaries include teachers
teaching survival skills, emergency readiness groups training members virtually, and
game players interested in interactive and educational games. By combining gamified
interaction and real-world learning, this VR environment offers a new approach to
survival strategy learning.
The Virtual Moon Survival Game is a groundbreaking decision-making simulation designed
to sharpen critical thinking and collaboration skills. In this game, players are faced
with a life-threatening scenario: stranded on the Moon after a spaceship crash. With
only 15 available items, players must decide which objects are most crucial for survival
and rank them accordingly. The game merges educational content with an engaging interactive
experience, encouraging participants to think critically, work as a team, and strategize
under pressure. This project also showcases the potential of gamified decision-making
exercises to revolutionize traditional learning and corporate training environments.

environment where children can experience and respond to simulated emergency situations,
such as fire hazards, and toxic gas leaks. The VR environment showcases an interactive
school setup with AI-guided conversations, door code challenges and all designed to
foster cognitive development and decision-making abilities. This project will benefit
children by enhancing their practical skills, and it will also support educators,
child development researchers, and emergency preparedness trainers in creating more
engaging and effective learning experiences.
Project 8: Tactical Rescue and Evacuation Simulation for a Multi Storied Building
The practice of conducting emergency drills with physical locations creates both expensive
and safety risks. A single-user first-person VR simulation takes place within an authentic
burning urban plaza for training essential skills that include fire suppression and
threat neutralization together with civilian evacuation. A mix of extremely detailed
3D models, realistic particle effect-generated smoke and fire materials, and spatially
optimized sound effects leads to this responsive sense of immersion in the training
environment. AI-controlled characters make seamless progress through Unity's NavMesh
system while various sensor inputs activate functions that include door-destruction
and NPC reactions. The application serves as a secure platform for training practices
which promotes both experience-based competence and disciplined choices in high-pressure
situations.
