About this project
A textbook teaches fiber optics with cross-sections and refraction diagrams. This game puts the learner inside the work. The player joins fibers and reads an OTDR trace. Roblox is a platform the audience already uses.
What I found
The principles of fiber optics are abstract on a whiteboard, and the work they describe is physical.
What I built
I wrote an interactive environment in Luau. The player acts on the equipment. The game holds the state of each task and shows the result.
How it works
- Roblox environment with Luau scripts
- Models of the fiber splice task and the OTDR test
- State for each task, and steps that the player must complete
