In this small project, I created a Virtual Reality (VR) simulation which could colour code each individual button depending on how easy it is to reach.
The colour code was dependent on how far a user would need to lean or twist their body as they pressed the virtual button. To determine this, we used a pose estimation neural net from Google. You can see this on the laptop next to me in one of the images. This data was fed back into Unreal Engine via web sockets.
