Rules & Logistics

Please keep in mind:

• Collaboration:
  • Our main collaboration platform will be GitLab.
  • You can learn more about GitLab here.
• Deliverables: See deliverables
• E-mails: When you email the instructor or the TAs, please remember to include the word "VRCAPSTONE" in your subject line. It's also recommended to send email to the vr-capstone-staff @ cs address rather than sending mail to individual staff members. You should get a quicker reply that way and it helps the whole staff keep track of active issues.
• Discussions: For questions/comments that might be relevant to the entire class, please use the VR Capstone discussion board.
• VR/AR Labs
  1. Devices can NOT be taken out of rooms, or move between rooms.
  2. No guests.
  3. No food or drinks allowed inside the rooms and near the devices.
  4. Lock your devices every day before you leave the room in your assigned locker.
  5. Rooms are under video surveillance.
  6. Have Fun.

Grading

Students will be evaluated based on their commitment to the project (1/2) and the project outcome (1/2). The commitment to the project includes timely weekly project reports, showing effort, and peer evaluations. Project outcome will constitute the quality of your reports, deliverables, and demo. Thus, your grade will reflect the work perceived by the instructor, the TA, your fellow students (both within and outside your group), and any mentors. You will be constantly given feedback in the class as to your progress, so you will know where you stand. Please notify the instructor of any team issues early!
