Serengeti-VR-Tutor

Serengeti experience in Virtual Reality with an AI Tutor.

The purpose of this project is to create AIVRE, an Artificial Intelligence for Virtual Reality in Education.

Keywords: AIVRE, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, intelligent tutor, Wikipedia, chatbot, Unity 3D, HTC Vive, api.ai, Google, IBM Watson, emotional intelligence, Serengeti.

How

The topic is the Serengeti; AIVRE will act both as an instructor and a tutor, content sourced from Wikipedia. A student will wear an HTC Vive Virtual Reality headset, communicate to the AIVRE using only voice, and experience an interactive lecture.

The Virtual World built with Unity3D; includes animals, terrain, and vegetation. AIVRE is powered by a Google’s chatbot engine API.ai while her voice is by IBM Watson. AIVRE is unusual in that she can express emotions visually and verbally.
