IGGI Conference workshop - Interactive Machine Learning for VR Game Controls

The IGGI Conference is sponsored by EPSRC

Intelligent Games and Games Intelligence Conference 2018

Learn how machine learning can be used with motion controls! Quickly implement complex gestures to achieve natural virtual reality controls!

<H3>Workshop description</H3>
In VR the direct mapping of controls offer a wide variety of game mechanics, but there are certain magical interactions that are complicated to translate into game logic. Interactive machine learning can be used to quickly prototype controls by directly showing human actions and computer responses to train the algorithm, allowing to speed the development pipeline! In this workshop, the attendant gets hands-on with RAPID-MIX: an interactive machine learning toolkit that can work with all sorts of input devices! The participant will use a motion-based input device (webcam, leap motion, VR controller, etc.) and modify a sample game with gestural interaction.
