Turtle VR – A new VR experience coming from Gnometech

Turtle VR is a new virtual reality experience created by Gnometech. With a tablet style interface combined with Google’s Blockly, we are able to drive a programmable turtle in real-time while in VR. Draw and explore geometry using the blocks Turtle VR provides, and browse through the provided catalog programs. Block-based programming makes it easy for anyone to get started.

 

 

The Turtle VR demo will be available for free following Oculus Connect 2. It requires a Razer Hydra and Oculus Rift to operate. We would love to get this running on the HTC Vive or Oculus Touch!

Technology Used:

  • Unreal Engine 4
  • Google Blockly
  • CoherentUI
  • Speedtree

Turtle VR is a beginning for us.  A prototype of a more extensive VR experience we have been planning for a while.  We look forward to sharing more once we get the Turtle VR demo out the door.
