What's the name of your experience?
Stargazer

Please describe your creation.
We set out to create an experience that would play to VR's current strength, which is immersion, and not push into what makes most people sick -- movement.

To enjoy this experience, you will need Oculus VR + Leap Motion hardware. We also strongly recommend having a good set of headphones to wear.

The one twist to the experience is that at one point we ask you to lie down, so try out this experience when you are near a couch, bench, or bed.

Initially, we tried to use the Leap to detect pointing fingers at the stars. Unfortunately, the tracking doesn't work so well with that and we found that an open hand works much better. If for any reason you get stuck selecting the stars in a constellation, try sweeping over with your hand a few times or try a different hand and you should be able to get it.

Programming language?
Unity/C#

Stargazer - A very interesting concept. But it will get boring pretty soon (I prefer more action). But overall: A good experience to kill time ;)

Cool, very relaxing
