KairosVRGuided Immersive Experience

KairosVR is an ambitious large-scale VR installation designed for immersive narrative experiences across multiple synchronized booths. Developed in Unreal Engine 5.6, the project leverages advanced technologies including Procedural Content Generation (PCG) for environmental detail, Lumen for dynamic global illumination, and World Partition for seamless level streaming. Each scene is crafted with photorealistic lighting and visual fidelity optimized for standalone VR performance on Meta Quest 3 platforms. The experience employs an “on-rails” guided tour approach, where users navigate predetermined paths within allocated timeframes—eliminating complex interaction requirements while maintaining engagement through visual storytelling. Three separate executable builds provide distinct atmospheric lighting scenarios (Dawn, Fiery, Apocalyptic) that synchronize across dedicated VR booths, creating a cohesive multi-user experience. Gaze-based interaction mechanics enable intuitive scene transitions and UI navigation, while a minimal onboarding system ensures accessibility. The project demonstrates expertise in large-scale VR optimization, multi-executable synchronization, and creating cinematic immersive environments that balance visual ambition with performance constraints.
