Mixed Reality Nutrition App

currently developing in Unity for the Meta Quest 3

Objective:

Provide an engaging experience for new nursing students at Grand Valley State University to learn what factors lead to certain foods fitting certain diets

Current Features:

• New foods are spawned randomly on the first station placed by the user
• Foods can be sorted by the user onto one of three plates, representing diets like “Mechanical Soft Diet” or “Low Sodium Diet” and receive feedback to guide their decision making
  • A digital agent (the “ChefShroom”) moves to food placed incorrectly and provides detailed feedback through writing and an audio clip in a speech bubble
  • A piece of paper above each plate reflects common nutritional states for each plate placed (i.e. Calories, Carbs, Fat, etc)
• User can rotate and scale stations before placing initially to ensure proper fit, stations automatically align to room surfaces
