Project Type

• The project is a desktop application developed with the Unity game engine.
• It was designed to help young children with amblyopia perform eye exercises through game-based interaction.

Architecture / System Design

• The project embeds its content inside the desktop application structure.
• The architecture can be described with two main layers: the application and the hardware.
• The application layer is the Unity desktop application used by children.
• The hardware layer is the Tobii Eye Tracker 4C device, which detects eye movements.
• The application layer is organized by content folders such as Textures, Scenes, Scripts, Images, Animations, and Resources.
• The Singleton Pattern is used where state and objects need to persist across different scenes.
• Abstract class and interface structures are used to reduce dependencies between modules.
• Game data collected from exercises is stored so it can be visualized in a separate module used by doctors.

Technologies Used

• Desktop development: C#, Unity, .NET Standard 2.1, Visual Studio
• Hardware integration: Tobii Eye Tracker 4C
• Data and architecture: JSON, Singleton Pattern, Abstract Class, Interface
• Packaging and assets: Inno Setup Compiler, GIMP
• Version control and collaboration: Git, GitHub, GitLab CE, Slack

Key Technical Details and Modules

• Reduced low-level dependencies through design patterns and abstraction structures.
• Calculated statistics by deriving different formulas from eye movement data.
• Stored eye tracking data so it could be visualized for doctor follow-up.
• Packaged the application for installation.
• Created exercise-based games based on feedback and approval from doctors.

Participation and Timeline

• The project was developed for Eyesoft Bilişim.
• I developed the project independently based on requests from the company's co-founder and doctors.
• I worked on the project during my time at the company between September 2021 and December 2022.
• The project is still in use.

Project Management / Team Structure

• We did not use a Jira-like project management tool for this project.
• I installed GitLab CE on the company's server and moved the project repository there for version control.
• I also set up Slack for communication and integrated it with the GitLab repository.
• The main stakeholders I worked with were the company's co-founder and doctors.

Personal Contributions and Responsibilities

• I was responsible for the entire project during the period I worked on it.
• I handled the Unity desktop application, Tobii hardware integration, exercise game flows, data collection, packaging, and internal development infrastructure.

Deployment Information

• Since the project is a desktop application, it is not publicly hosted as a standalone application.
• Setup packages can be downloaded through the related ecosystem after accounts and purchases are managed through the web portal and the auxiliary desktop application.
• The public web portal is available through the project link above.
