Development of an Immersive Virtual Space Design Platform with Real-Time Motion Tracking and Haptic Feedback

The client struggles with costly and time-consuming physical prototyping for space design iterations. They require an accurate, instant preview method to evaluate design proposals, materials, and interior configurations, while minimizing eye strain and maximizing user interaction through mixed reality technology.

A large construction and interior design firm seeking innovative visualization tools to streamline client approvals and reduce prototyping costs.

• Create a real-time, immersive virtual environment enabling instant preview and modification of spatial designs.
• Eliminate the need for physical prototypes, thereby reducing costs and project lead times.
• Integrate multi-sensor tracking (e.g., hand, object) to enable natural interaction and precise manipulation within virtual spaces.
• Implement haptic feedback to simulate material textures and physical interactions for improved assessment.
• Ensure minimal eye strain and comfortable user experience during extended use.
• Utilize scalable and flexible technology architecture to support diverse client project sizes.

• Integration with VR headsets and motion tracking hardware to enable precise spatial manipulation.
• Real-time synchronization between physical motion and virtual model updates.
• Tools for adjusting interior components, materials, and configurations instantly within the virtual space.
• Haptic devices to provide tactile feedback correlating with virtual interactions and material selections.
• Support for scaled mockups of various environments, such as aircraft interiors or hotel rooms.
• Features to optimize user comfort, including eye strain minimization and ergonomic interaction methods.

• Hardware interfaces for VR headsets and motion tracking sensors
• External libraries or SDKs supporting haptic feedback and spatial tracking
• Cloud storage solutions for project file management
• User authentication and access control systems

• System latency must be kept below 20 milliseconds for seamless interaction
• Scalability to support multiple concurrent users or large project models
• High reliability with 99.9% uptime to enable continuous usage
• Data security measures to protect sensitive design information
• Compatibility across various VR hardware and web browsers

The platform is expected to significantly reduce physical prototyping costs and design approval times, leading to faster project delivery and lower overall expenditure. Enhanced immersive visualization will improve client understanding and satisfaction, positioning the firm as an innovative leader in space planning and interior design.
