The simulation is a group project, that involves creating a digital twin of the 4th Floor of Langford-C Building at Texas A&M University. The purpose was to simulate crowd/student systems, behavior to monitor occupancy, room status and more. My part was to 3D model and stage the classroom, and hallway floors, using Blender and Autodesk Maya 2024. Below are images of my curved classroom and hallway setup, where I modeled the room walls, and then staged those walls and imported room assets (ex. desks, chairs, lockers, speakers, posters, etc.) all together; in order to make a proper replicate of the area. This helped my group with estimating location points in the simulation when recording data.

When modeling the curved classroom and hallway, I made sure to take photo references in order to create the scene to almost an exact copy. I learned when creating simulations, it is important to replicate the structure or movement of any matter in order to properly create the right outcome. I made sure to replicate almost the exact models of every object in hallway area, such as school desks, trash cans, tech, lockers, movie posters, etc.;
