Unity is more than just a game engine—it’s a powerful real-time 3D platform transforming industries like manufacturing, architecture, and engineering. In this module, you’ll learn how Unity is used for industrial applications, explore real-world examples, and understand the core benefits of real-time 3D development in professional workflows. 

Module 1: Introduction to Unity Industry Applications

In this module, you’ll get a hands-on introduction to Unity’s interface, learning how to navigate, customize, and efficiently work within the editor. Understanding how to use key windows like the Scene View, Game View, Hierarchy, Project, and Inspector will set the foundation for a smooth and productive workflow.

Module 3: Navigating the Unity Editor

GameObjects and Scenes are the core building blocks of any Unity project. In this module, you’ll learn how to create, modify, and organize GameObjects, structure your scenes effectively, and apply essential transformations like moving, rotating, and scaling objects. You’ll also explore parent-child relationships, multiple scene management, and best practices for keeping your projects structured.

Module 4: Working with GameObjects and Scenes

Assets are the building blocks of any Unity project, including 3D models, textures, materials, audio, and scripts. In this module, you'll learn how to import, organize, and optimize assets to keep your project structured and efficient. You'll also discover best practices for managing large asset libraries and maintaining performance in real-time 3D applications.

Module 5: Importing and Organizing Assets

Now that you’ve learned how to import, organize, and manage assets, it’s time to apply those skills in a real-world project! In this module, you’ll build a virtual showroom, a commonly used interactive visualization in industries like architecture, automotive, and manufacturing. You’ll learn how to set up a scene, arrange 3D models, apply materials, adjust lighting, and create a functional showroom that displays assets in an interactive environment.
