In a groundbreaking collaboration with the Dubai Emirates Government, Vasundhara Infotech, a leading game development company based in Surat, recently accomplished a remarkable feat - developing a cutting-edge KIOSK application using the Unity game engine. The journey, spanning five months, was filled with challenges, innovation, and unwavering dedication. This blog sheds light on our remarkable project story, from its inception to its successful completion.

The Initial Encounter

Five months ago, we were approached by the Dubai Emirates Government with an ambitious vision. They sought a KIOSK application, a tool that would serve as a public information hub for various services and attractions. The catch, however, was that they wanted this application built using Unity, a powerful game engine. This decision was driven by their long-term plan to integrate real scenes and environments into the application. Eager to embark on a groundbreaking project, we gladly accepted the challenge.

The Unity Dilemma

Unity, predominantly known for game development, presented us with a unique set of challenges. Crafting a KIOSK application would require a complete paradigm shift, transcending the traditional boundaries of Unity's capabilities. Nonetheless, we were confident in our team's abilities and committed to exploring new avenues within the engine.

Nurturing Innovation

The initial phase of the project was marked by extensive brainstorming and ideation sessions. We leveraged the diverse expertise of our team members, including Unity development specialists, UI/UX designers, and software engineers. Our goal was to bridge the gap between a gaming engine and a functional KIOSK application.

Key Challenges and Solutions

• User Interface (UI)

One of the primary challenges was designing a user-friendly and intuitive interface for the KIOSK application. While Unity offers a powerful UI system for games, we had to re-envision it for a more practical purpose. After numerous iterations, we arrived at a clean, accessible, and visually appealing UI that aligned perfectly with the client's requirements.

• Real-Scene Integration

To ensure seamless integration of real scenes and environments in the future, we had to architect the application with extensibility in mind. We implemented a modular design, enabling easy incorporation of real-world elements when the technology is ready.

• Performance Optimization

Unity's inherent focus on game performance had to be modified to suit the KIOSK application's needs. We streamlined resource management, minimized load times, and ensured the application ran smoothly even on low-spec hardware.

• Months of Dedication

Throughout the intense development phase, our team displayed an unwavering commitment to excellence. We tackled every challenge head-on, tirelessly iterating, testing, and refining the application. Our unity of purpose, camaraderie, and belief in the project's significance fueled our determination.

The Successful Outcome

After three months of relentless effort, we achieved our goal. The Unity KIOSK application surpassed all expectations, seamlessly blending a game engine's capabilities with the functionality of a practical information hub. The Dubai Emirates Government was highly impressed with the final product, acknowledging our team's dedication and ingenuity.

Conclusion

The successful completion of the Unity KIOSK application for the Dubai Emirates Government stands as a testament to the power of vision, innovation, and teamwork. We embraced a challenge that pushed the boundaries of conventional thinking and emerged victorious. This project has not only expanded our horizons but also opened new doors for future collaborations where we can combine diverse technologies to create groundbreaking solutions.Get in touch with our experts today.
