Virtual reality has profoundly impacted many aspects of modern life, from global communication and financial transactions to immersive entertainment. Developing immersive 3D virtual worlds requires a deep understanding of technology, design principles, and programming.

Unity is the platform of choice for VR development, and this course provides a comprehensive understanding of its features and setup to support development for Meta Quest 2. You will first develop an understanding of basic concepts like lighting, physics, and animation, before grappling with advanced development topics like designing an interaction framework, scripting, and locomotion.  

By the end of the course, you will utilize your knowledge to build a VR game, i.e., Medieval Dungeon Escape. There is an acute shortage of VR developers worldwide, and this course presents a unique opportunity to advance your conceptual understanding of immersive technologies and get hands-on VR development experience.

A team of developers is considering using either the Universal Render Pipeline (URP) or High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP) for a high-graphics game called "Road to office." The lead Unity developer, Hamza, has listed the requirements for the game, which include the ability to run on mobile platforms and the ability to offer advanced graphics on high-end devices while optimizing for performance on low-end devices. Based on these requirements, which render pipeline do you think the team should choose?
