Dr. Dolittle VR is a Unity based Virtual Reality game where players use a language of body gestures to communicate with virtual animals. The game uses interactive machine learning to detect the gestures; the library InteractML developed at Goldsmiths implements the machine learning. The application emulates multi-sensory Dance and Movement Therapy where animal responses stimulate players to move and dance! This project was presented as a paper at the workshop IEEE VR Novel Input Devices and Interaction Techniques (NIDIT) 2025. You can read the paper here!
