VR Nemonic System
This project leverages virtual reality and the method of loci to enhance Picmonic's medical education platform, creating a spatial UI system that allows users to strategically place and recall information in virtual environments.
The client was wanting to explore a more powerful approach to nemonic memorization using VR as a medium in which the spatial element can add another level of memorization. This added layer spatial learning is know as the method of loci in which information can be strategically placed in an environment to be re called later at a more effective rate. I've been tasked with my team to create a product that lets user explore the different lessons provided by Picmonic in a new way. Using Unity's UI system, OVR, nested prefab variants and much more I was able to create a reusable spatial UI system that was tested against longtime users of the current Picmonic platform. The product is used today to demonstrate the future of nemonic learning once VR becomes more accessible to online learners.
Client - Picmonic
Picmonic is a large online medical education platform that has thousands of users that take part in a new forum of learning. This new nemonic forum harnesses the brains unique ability to remember complex information by visually assigning illustrations that embody textual educational material.
