In this project I would like to create a more accessible 3D interactive nature experience on website for people who cannot experience real nature right now.
I often watch the trees outside of my window in this special time. The mobile screen is a “black window” for us to have a virtual nature experience, to take a break with mindfulness.
I used Three.js and Babylon.js which are programming libraries of WebGL to create these web experiences.
All these web experiences are using mobile devices’ gyroscope or orientation sensor to simulate a change of view angle.
