The Enterprise in Virtual Reality

This is a project I started for fun after learning to use Blender and Unity while taking a Computer Animation class. As time went on, this project continued to grow from just a model of the bridge to a full virtual simulation of the Enterprise in Earth drydock for the CAVE2(TM) Hybrid-Reality Environment at the Electronic Visualization Laboratory, University of Illinois at Chicago. Modeling the original motion picture Enterprise since most of the other projects I see are Next Generation era.
