The VR Traffic Jam Simulator is an immersive simulation developed in Unity for the Oculus Rift headset. Designed for the Civil Engineering Graphical Simulation Lab at the University of Tehran, this project provides a realistic representation of traffic dynamics at a crossroad. With support for both vehicle and pedestrian behaviors, the simulator offers an engaging way to study and analyze urban traffic patterns and responses to traffic light systems.
Key Features:
- Realistic Vehicle Dynamics:
- Physics-based car mechanics for authentic movement and interaction.
- Vehicles follow traffic light signals and adapt their behavior at the crossroad.
- Pedestrian Behavior:
- Pedestrians dynamically react to traffic signals, crossing when permitted.
- Realistic movements enhance immersion and simulation accuracy.
- Immersive VR Experience:
- Designed for the Oculus Rift, leveraging VR capabilities to provide a first-hand view of traffic scenarios.
- Supports real-time observation of traffic flow and interaction.
Development Process:
This project combines Unity’s physics engine with VR integration to deliver a comprehensive and realistic simulation.
Key focus areas include:
- Implementing detailed traffic light systems to synchronize vehicle and pedestrian behaviors.
- Developing physics-based vehicle mechanics for realistic acceleration, braking, and collision response.
- Creating a VR environment that immerses users in the perspective of traffic participants.
