Ladder Fall Demo
Role: Solo developer
Project Description:
You are a junior worker on a busy construction site. Your supervisor has just told you that an inspector is on the way and wants the site to look as presentable as possible. He instructs you to climb up and clean the newly installed windows. No one else is available to help, but it should be fine to do it on your own right?
What could go wrong, and what chould the consequences be?
This project is a proof of concept for an immersive training experience focused on ladder safety. Its primary aim is to allow users to experience first-hand the potential consequences of failing to follow basic safety procedures.
The experience places the user in a realistic workplace scenario in which they are pressured to complete a task quickly and without assistance. Their decisions lead to consequences that demonstrate the risks of unsafe ladder use.
Following the scenario, a short instructional section explains what the user did incorrectly and demonstrates the correct and safe way to carry out the task.
Interesting / Unique elements
Ladder Climb: There is a ladder you must climb to reach the window at the start of the experience. Unlike in many simulations where you would just be teleported to the top, in this experience, you actually have to grab either the rungs or the side of the ladder and pull yourself up
Wall Blocking: If you try to push the camera through a wall instead of seeing inside it, your vision will tunnel. This helps maintain immersion.
Accuracy: This was reviewed by a safety trainer with years of construction experience. The information provided is accurate, and elements such as ladder placement adhere to real-world safety standards
Timeline: From start to finish, this project took just one week
