First game using c language
Saurabh Khetan presents his first game developed using the C language. The game is a simple guessing game where the player guesses a randomly generated number between 1-32. The program uses functions like srand(), GetTickCount(), and rand() to generate random numbers. It tracks the number of guesses using a do-while loop. The messages in the loop provide hints if the guess is too high or low. It outputs the number of guesses and a message if the player correctly guesses the random number.

Mind Control to Major Tom: Is It Time to Put Your EEG Headset On?
JavaOne 2016 talk
Using your mind to interact with computers is a long-standing desire. Advances in technology have made it more practical, but is it ready for prime time? This session presents practical examples and a walkthough of how to build a Java-based end-to-end system to drive a remote-controlled droid with nothing but the power of thought. Combining off-the-shelf EEG headsets with cloud technology and IoT, the presenters showcase what capabilities exist today. Beyond mind control (if there is such a concept), the session shows other ways to communicate with your computer besides the keyboard. It will help you understand the art of the possible and decide if it's time to leave the capsule to communicate with your computer.

Improving the VR experience - VRST 2012
"Improving the VR experience, from the authors to the users"
Creating an immersive virtual reality application is a big challenge: choosing (or creating) the right hardware, choosing (or creating) the right software, and finally crafting the user experience. The hardware is increasingly powerful and accessible, but we don't know how to make the best of it. This is in part because designing a VR experience is a complex software task, and is also due to our limited understanding of the main component of the system: the user.
In this talk we will focus the current trends in system design, on the goals and design of MiddleVR, a generic VR plugin aimed at simplifying the creation of VR applications and we will discuss how our understanding of human perception can be used to improve the VR experience.
VRDC 2016 Talk: Kite & Lightning's VR Production Workflow
Session Description:
Kite & Lightning is a two man VR team that's created art house pieces such as Senza Peso as well as VR experiences for Lionsgate's tentpole film, Insurgent: Shatter Reality.
Come listen to a practical and concrete talk covering all aspects of Kite & Lightning's cinematic production design workflow for VR. This will be an open soup to nuts overview ranging from storyboarding/ideation phase all the way to production and development/release. The goal is to share all the hard earned lessons that K&L has learned as well as discuss how they are tackling existing challenges such as creating a story telling language for VR. They will also dive into specifics of tooling, workflow, pipeline that empower them as a two person indie duo with indie budgets to create blockbuster VR experiences. The aim of the session is to share insights that they would seek out from other high end studios such as Pixar, ILM, or our friends at Oculus Story Studio.
They'll use three different projects as case studies of what went wrong, what went right, and how we pulled it off:
- NBC's The Voice: A Live Action Experience
- Lionsgate's Insurgent: A VFX Heavy Live Action CG Experience
- GE's Neuro: A Pure CG Experience Incorporating
Takeaway
Participants will walk away with concrete practical production/development techniques Kite & Lightning uses to create cinematic VR experiences such as Senza Peso or Insurgent's Shatter Reality.
