Tech Projects
Tech Art
EndlessNeon
[Houdini, Unreal, Substance Designer]
Procedural Cyberpunk City
Created a city blending Eastern architecture with cyberpunk style using Houdini and Unreal Engine 5, featuring procedural buildings, dynamic assets, and custom materials.
Jellyfish
[Houdini]
Created a procedural jellyfish in Houdini with an animated bell, flowing tentacles using hair dynamics, and organic veins generated with the shortest path algorithm.
FireBall
[WEBGL, GLSL]
Created a dynamic fireball effect using WebGL and GLSL shaders, featuring a procedurally displaced 3D icosphere. Implemented multi-layer noise with high-amplitude, low-frequency distortion for shape deformation and fractal Brownian motion for fine surface details.
Stylization
[Unity]
Created a stylized 3D scene in Unity inspired by 2D concept art with non-photorealistic rendering techniques. Developed custom shaders with multiple light support, rim highlights, and animated colors to create a glowing edge effect.
Buildings
[Houdini]
Developed a procedural building generator in Houdini, enabling users to create customizable multi-story buildings with simple parameters.
Rendering
CUDA Path Tracer
[CUDA, C++]
A CUDA-based path tracer designed to efficiently simulate realistic lighting in 3D scenes by tracing rays and evaluating their interactions with different materials.
WebGPU Deferred Rendering [WEBGPU, C++]
Implements Naive, Forward+ and Clustered Deferred Shading techniques using WebGPU.
PBR
[C++]
Implemented a physically-based rendering (PBR) shader using the Cook-Torrance BRDF model with support for both diffuse and specular image-based lighting.
Sign Distance Function
[C++]
Implemented a raymarched scene with signed distance fields (SDFs) using a Cook-Torrance BSDF approximation for realistic shading. Created complex models with multiple SDF functions, transformations, and smooth boolean operations.
Stroke Rendering
[WEBGPU]
A GPU-accelerated platform for expressive vector-based digital art, offering real-time rendering, variable-width strokes, and seamless integration on WebGPU.
Vulkan Grass
[Vulkan]
Implemented a grass simulator and renderer in Vulkan based on Responsive Real-Time Grass Rendering for General 3D Scenes.
Customize Shader
[OpenGL, C++]
An OpenGL project featuring custom shaders and geometry rendering. Built a cube using vertex buffers and implemented shaders for Blinn-Phong lighting, matcap effects, iridescence, and deformation.
Tools
Particle Systems
[Unity, C++]
Developed a particle system using C++ and OpenGL to simulate dynamic effects, including basic particle dynamics, noise-based procedural fireworks, and collisions with realistic bounce physics.
Maya L - system Plugin
[Maya, C++, MEL]
A custom Maya plugin built with the Maya API, designed for dynamic L-System modeling to create procedural geometry like plants and fractals. It includes a MEL-based GUI and a custom node for real-time geometry updates.
Behavioral Anmation
[Unity, C++]
Developed a behavioral animation system using a combination of individual and group behaviors for autonomous agents. Implemented key features like seeking, fleeing, wandering, obstacle avoidance, and flocking.
Houdini L - system Plugin
[Houdini, C++, MEL]
Custom Houdini plugin built with the HDK in C++, extending L-System modeling for procedural structures like trees and vines. Features dynamic updates and enhanced controls for flexible geometry generation.
Games
Magic Slice
[VR, Unreal]
VR Cooking is a virtual reality cooking experience based on Unreal Engine 5. Players can realistically grab, cut, stir-fry, serve, experience the fun of cooking from “raw” to “cooked”, and get feedback and ratings through the order system.
Back to Blue
[AR, Unity, Hand Tracking]
Back to Blue is a gravity-based navigation game that explores hybrid interaction design, which combines traditional keyboard controls with hand-tracking gestures. Players tilt a 3D maze to guide a Bubble Fish toward safety while managing gravity, friction, and environmental hazards
Santa Claus Adventure
[Swift]
Worked on a team of three to create a game to control two Santa cars, avoid obstacles, and collect dropped gifts while delivering presents. Featuring customizable difficulty, vibrant visuals, engaging sound effects, and a holiday-inspired design.
Eclipse of Domain
[Unreal]
Eclipse of Domain is a first-person flashlight horror exploration game with dynamic lighting and level design that is built in Unreal. I was responsible for level design, trap mechanisms, material tweaks, and shaping the game’s core concept and mood.
Mini-Minecraft
[OpenGL, C++]
Collaborated on a three-person team to develop a Minecraft-inspired project with interactive mechanics and procedurally generated terrains, including caves, hills, desert, and grasslands using noise algorithms.
Research
“Bee and I Need Diversity!” — ACM IDC 2024
[Unity, C#, AR, Educational Game Design]
Collaborated on the development of BeeTrap, an AR learning experience that helps children understand and break algorithmic filter bubbles through embodied interaction.
I contributed to Unity prototyping and interaction design, integrating physical gesture metaphors and game mechanics to connect AI concepts with intuitive, playful learning.
