Future Planet - How the present can influence the future

"Future Planet - How the present can influence the future" is an interactive and collaborative virtual environment designed to raise awareness of environmental issues and promote sustainable choices. The project addresses critical issues such as deforestation, air pollution and clean energy and challenges users to solve them in order to create a sustainable future. Users make good or bad decisions to learn about the impact on the environment - for example, planting appropriate trees combats deforestation, while poor building decisions increase pollution. By completing tasks, such as discovering hidden seeds or collecting research papers, players unlock items that they can use to develop their future planet. Cooperation is important: one player in the present makes decisions that affect the future, while another in the future observes the effects and provides assistance. Interaction features include a gesture-based 3D user interface with a miniature earth for teleportation and unique tools for navigation and item management. By combining education, gamification and immersive elements, the project encourages users to explore sustainable behaviors and work together to create a greener, more sustainable planet.
