Development Process
The workflow for this project began with designing the UI overlay, ensuring a clean and intuitive layout for user interaction. I then implemented the 3D model loading and configured the camera setup to provide optimal viewing angles. To enhance realism, I created custom environment maps for both day and night themes, adding immersive lighting conditions. A toggle switch was integrated to allow seamless theme changes without disrupting the experience. Finally, I applied a series of performance optimizations, including efficient asset loading and rendering improvements, to deliver a smooth and responsive user experience across devices.
