History

A brief history of this world has been documented by Bob64.

  • v0: Proof of concept world with 3 cube buttons (you know, the ones that are hard as hell to click on) that tell 3 avatars to perform different dances.
  • v1: SDK2 version of the world with programmatically generated buttons and Unity UI (yay raycast laser-pointer) system. It also was the first world to use motion capture to try and show sign language in 3D space.
  • v2: SDK3 (Udon) version of the world, with the menu system redesigned from the ground up using Udonsharp.
  • v3: ShaderMotion version. This world leverages ShaderMotion to increase the precision of motion capture, solving one of the biggest problems plaguing the previous versions of the world (poor quality motion capture). The downside is the world is now heavily dependent on videoplayers working properly.

This world is based on the contributions of MrDummy_NL, a dedicated member of the deaf community within VRChat. The world described by Bob64, MrDummy_NL’s Sign&Fun, originally utilized videos to teach users sign language. Bob64's Experimental Sign Language World builds on this foundation, enhancing the learning experience with interactive 3D motion capture.

ShaderMotion

This world features advanced motion capture technology integrated within VRChat itself, titled ShaderMotion[3]. It leverages this capability by displaying a 3D, motion-captured avatar that demonstrates the signs from the dictionary, providing users with a realistic and accurate visual reference for learning.
