Welcome to the Maroon repository. Maroon is an interactive laboratory and experiment environment implemented in Unity, designed for active learning in the classroom or at home. It visualizes and simulates various experiments.

If you are looking for more information, downloads or web-builds feel free to visit our website. If you are looking for details about software components, how to contribute to Maroon or other development-related information, you can consult our wiki.

Maroon is an interactive and immersive laboratory developed in Unity, a game engine which allows to build and deploy a high-quality 3D environment across mobile, desktop and VR platforms. The lab is designed to support the flexible integration of different interactive learning experiences. To start a specific learning experience, the user can approach one of those stations (illustrated with circular markers). From there the user can teleport to a new room which represents the specific learning experiences with the learning content, simulations, or experiments.

The following conceptual overview of the different versions of Maroon (Maroon Desktop, Maroon Room-Scale VR, Maroon Mobile VR and Maroon Multi-User) illustrates the different forms of engagement Maroon supports or plans to support.

Maroon contains several physics experiments, but will be extended with computer science simulations and experiences from other subjects in the future. The physics experiments cover Van de Graaff Generator, Falling Coil, Faraday’s Law, Capacitor and Huygen's Principle.
