Creating the Virtual Experiment Laboratory app with the Visual Studio 3D Starter Kit

While many people think of 3D applications as primarily being games, 3D graphics also bring educational apps to life. Roberto Sonnino, developer of the Visual Studio 3D Starter Kit, interviews Gokhan Sengun of Netas Telekomunikasyon A.S., who created the Virtual Experiment Laboratory (Sanal Deney Laboratuvarı) app using the Visual Studio 3D Starter Kit.

Gokhan discusses how he used the Starter Kit as a base for learning about DirectX programming, and demonstrates how he used the Visual Studio Shader Designer to create some of the effects in his app.
