Abstract
evoExplore is a system designed to assist evolutionary design projects. Built in the Unity 3D game engine and designed with future development and expansion in mind, evoExplore allows the user to collect and visualize data from evolutionary design experiments in 3D. The user is provided the tools needed to breed their own evolving populations, record the results from such evolutionary experiments and then visualize the recorded data as a series of 3D columns and rings representing the recorded evolutionary experiments and their populations over time. evoExplore allows the user to dynamically explore their own evolutionary experiments, as well as those produced by other users, in order to better understand the data produced by these evolutionary systems. In this document we describe the features of evoExplore, the engine it was built in, the use of virtual reality in evoExplore and the contributions our system brings to the field
