Papy3D

The aim of this master’s semester project is to explore the physical simulation of a papyrus using Unity and to improve interaction with it.During this project, two approaches were explored. The first, which is more mathematical, implements Archimedes’ formula to simulate the rolling of the papyrus.A second approach relies more on an optical illusion by varying the thickness of the cylinders to simulate the rolling.The second video shows the use of a component supplied by unity originally used to simulate…

This project is a direct follow-up to the previous one. The aim is to add haptic feedback using gloves. These haptic gloves have small motors at the end of each finger and one at wrist level. The purpose of this feedback is to provide additional immersion when handling the papyrus in mixed reality.

The aim of this semester project is to manipulate a virtual papyrus in mixed reality. It is possible to grasp the papyrus using your hands (hand-tracking) and to scroll through its contents using buttons or by scrolling directly on the papyrus. The application has been developed using the Meta SDK on Unity and is deployed on a Meta Quest 3 headset.This project allows you to manipulate the papyrus extracted from the previous project.

An initial exploratory project was carried out over two semesters at the HumanTech Institute. The aim of this project is to propose a tool for visualizing and manipulating papyrus fragments in three dimensions (recto/verso). The role of this application is to generate a papyrus of the desired dimensions, to position the fragments owned by papyrologists in the form of a photo, and to manipulate the virtual papyrus (rotation, zoom, etc.). The first iteration of this application was tested using the Iliad…
