The project involved designing and implementing an interactive and immersive Virtual Reality (VR) environment for simulating chemistry and physics experiments. The primary objective was to create a realistic and engaging educational tool, leveraging the capabilities of Unreal Engine, to enable students to perform virtual experiments in a safe and controlled environment.

The Virtual Chemistry and Physics Lab aimed to provide users with:

• A simulation of laboratory equipment and experimental setups .
• Real-time interaction with virtual tools and substances.
• Physics-based animations to replicate real-world behaviors, such as fluid dynamics, chemical reactions, and object collisions.
• A modular framework for adding new experiments and extending the lab's functionality.

Interactive 3D Model of the Virtual Lab

Below is a 3D visualization of one of the experimental setups used in the Virtual Chemistry and Physics Lab:

Things learnt during this internship:

• Virtual Reality (VR) Development using Unreal Engine for immersive educational simulations
• Interactive 3D Modeling & Simulation for chemistry and physics experiments in a virtual lab
• Physics-Based Animations to simulate fluid dynamics, chemical reactions, and object collisions in real-time
• Developing Modular Frameworks for adding new experiments and extending the lab’s functionality
• Hands-on Experience with AR/VR Technologies, optimizing user interaction within a controlled virtual environment

This opportunity provided me with practical experience in VR-based educational tools and trained me to develop highly interactive, physics-driven simulations for academic learning and experimentation.
