Diploma Thesis

In my Diploma thesis I aimed to combine the beauty of a Unity game with Leap Motion control and a sound psychological background.

Challenges

  • Since I got this brand new technology, the Leap Motion controller, as a developer and since it wasn’t on the market when I started my thesis, there where no available patterns or best practices on how the different parts of the game should be controlled with it. So there was alot of trial & error and innovating involved
  • The Leap Motion controller wasn’t as reliable as announced, so there was alot of manual smoothing and compensating of the gestures necessary

Business Process Editor

The Business Process Editor was a study project where I tried out new ways of user interaction and UI design for process modelling, to get a optimised and more efficient user experience. The editor was partly based on AristaFlow and part of the MARPLE project.

To further the accessibility it was decided that the project should be available in flash and was therefore created with Adobe Flex. Today such a project would likely be created with HTML5 and AJAX, but this was a few years back. ;)
