Azura Flat Sales Tour

An interactive, browser-based sales tour built for Azura Residences by Meridian Developers — letting buyers explore the tower in its seafront setting and check flat availability live, with no installation or plugin required.

Live Inventory Tower: Every floor is colour-coded by status — Available, Reserved, or Booked — with running unit totals on screen.
Interactive Hotspots: Clickable points across the aerial view open amenity details and a podium-level 360° panorama.
Admin Control Panel: The sales team updates unit status and project content in real time from a dedicated dashboard.

View Live App

VR App / Healthcare

VR Medical Education App

A multiplayer demo application developed in Unreal Engine for the Oculus Quest, designed specifically for medical professionals — complete with a built-in voice chat system and fully Blueprint-driven interactivity.

Topic Selection Interface: A main screen displays various medical topics as clickable thumbnails, each loading a name, instructional video, and anatomical 3D organ model.
Interactive Learning Environment: Users can pick up, inspect, and rotate anatomical organ models alongside a synced video player for an immersive view.
Tablet Control System: Each user has a virtual tablet to dynamically update, show, or hide topics on the shared main screen during a live session.

Automotive / Real-Time Viz

Introductory Bus Configuration Solution

A PC-based bus configuration and driving simulator developed in Unreal Engine, featuring advanced ray tracing (RTX) for high-fidelity visuals across a range of hardware configurations.

Real-Time Bus Configuration: Users can customize various aspects of the bus, adjusting features and settings live to suit their preferences.
Ray Tracing Graphics: Graphics and lighting settings scale dynamically based on system capabilities, ensuring optimal performance.
Drive Simulation: Seamless transition from the configurator into a fully functional driving experience with visual and control interactivity.

Education / VR

Agricultural Educational Game

An educational VR game designed specifically for Turkish agricultural students, providing an immersive and interactive farming simulation on PC-based virtual reality platforms.

Three Progressive Farming Levels: The simulation includes three distinct stages of farming, each designed to teach specific agricultural practices.
Task-Based Learning with Point System: Students follow step-by-step instructions. Correct actions award points, while mistakes deduct points.
Performance Evaluation: Students receive a final total score at the end of the simulation, supporting self-assessment and instructor feedback.

Architecture / Multiplayer

Architectural Interior Visualization with Multiplayer Support

A real-time architectural interior visualization experience with multiplayer functionality, available for both PC and VR platforms.

Multiplayer Environment: Supports multiple users in the same session, enabling collaborative walkthroughs and design discussions in real time.
Interactive Material Customization: Users can interactively change materials on cabinets, flooring, backsplash, and countertops live.
Top-Down Floor Plan View: Players can switch to a top-down view to see the layout from a floor plan perspective, enhancing spatial understanding.
Presenter Controls: The host acts as the presenter and can bring all other players to their location with a single click.
Blueprints & Data Assets Workflow: Interactivity is implemented using Unreal Engine Blueprints and Data Assets for easy content modification.

Visualization Pipeline / UE5

Interior Rendering & Lighting

A high-fidelity interior visualization pipeline built in Unreal Engine 5. Architectural models are imported via Datasmith, then built out with furniture placement, material assignment, lighting rigs, and final renders.

Lighting Setup: HDRI environments, Rect Lights on windows, Spot Lights on fixtures, using a custom UE5 batch-light plugin I built to automate placement.
Material Workflow: Master materials with accurate roughness, metallic, and displacement maps. Swaps are handled by my custom Swap Material Table plugin.
Furniture & Props: Detailed scene dressing placed and configured within the imported model matching client briefs and real-world scale.
Path Tracing & Lumen: Final renders use the UE5 path tracer for physically accurate GI and reflections; Lumen is used for fast preview iterations.

Deep dive

Furniture Configurator — built entirely on Blueprints & Data Assets

A real-time configurator where every product, material slot, and option is data-driven. Adding a new piece of furniture means filling in a Data Asset — never touching a Blueprint graph.

Custom DA_Category Data Asset defines product name, thumbnail, actor reference, and material slot arrays
Click any part of the model — countertop, body — to open a colour palette scoped to that zone only
Accessories toggle, cinematic camera flythrough, and a close-up detail view, all per-product
Previous / Next catalogue navigation reads everything from the active Data Asset at runtime

Web / 360°

Web Applications

A suite of lightweight, highly optimized web tools designed to bring interactive 3D and panoramic walkthroughs directly to clients' browsers without any installation or plugin required.

By leveraging advanced framework integrations and AI-assisted workflows, I compile complex Unreal Engine concepts, spatial planning metadata, and massive 3D scanning datasets into super-fast, responsive web interfaces.

Every application is equipped with a dedicated administrative control panel, allowing clients to dynamically update branding elements—such as colors and logos—as well as edit data in real-time. The backend infrastructure is built on a Firebase database to deliver secure, instantaneous data synchronization.

Core Applications

Application	Description
Interactive 3d Scan Tour	High-fidelity 3D Gaussian Splat viewer running in browser with real-time viewport optimization.
Interactive Siteplanner	Real-time plot specification explorer linked to dynamic databases for architectural site plans.
Interactive Floor Planner	2D browser-based plan explorer with detailed dimensions and room classification.
360 Virtual Tour	High-performance KRPANO and 3DVista virtual panoramic tours with fully customized UI.

Tools I built to
make the pipeline faster

Batch Light Placement

Select all ceiling meshes, right-click, add Spot Lights to every one at once. Same for Rect Lights on windows. Hours of lighting setup down to minutes.

Camera Sequence Generator

Select a camera array, auto-generate a Level Sequence per camera — each one outputs a 360° panoramic pass and a hero still in one action.

Swap Material Table

Define a mapping list, select meshes in the content panel, batch-replace every matched material in one click. Built for fast client colour iterations.

Gaussian Splat Generator

Automatically places cameras within interior scenes to generate the necessary data and images for Unreal Engine files to construct high-fidelity Gaussian splats.

Gaussian Splat Importer

Enables seamless importing of Gaussian splats into Unreal Engine as .ply files, offering runtime parameters for color correction, cropping, and predefined animations.
