This project goes through converting a hammock into a VR flying machine. We will use a VR app that is running the WRLD SDK in Unity so you can input whatever GPS coordinates you want and fly around that area in VR! This VR app will also run on IOS or Android. The hammock has an ESP8266 running Arduino code that goes on the cross bar of the hammock so when you lean left or right you turn in the game. Also there is a small fan running another Arduino board that blows faster or slower based on your speed in the game. So this project will go over how to interface Arduino with Unity, wirelessly over WIFI and also how to control a variable speed fan.
