unity 2019

There’s nothing more inspiring for us than seeing how creators are using Unity to produce world-changing games, films, and XR experiences. We created the Unity for Humanity 2019 Challenge to recognize and support some of the incredible socially conscious experiences people are making with Unity. 

看到创作者如何使用Unity来产生改变世界的游戏，电影和XR体验，对我们而言，没有什么比鼓舞人心的了。 我们创建了Unity for Humanity 2019挑战赛，以表彰并支持人们在Unity中所做的令人难以置信的具有社会意识的体验。

Unity for Humanity invites creators to submit projects in production or development that address social and environmental issues and offer impactful solutions. In January and February 2019, we received over 200 eligible submissions, and we were blown away by the innovation and high-impact storytelling we saw.

Unity for Humanity邀请创作者在生产或开发中提交解决社会和环境问题并提供有效解决方案的项目。 在2019年1月和2019年2月，我们收到了200多份合格论文，我们被看到的创新和高影响力的故事震撼了。

After much deliberation, we are thrilled to award this year’s prize to Richard Nockles, Dan Stankowski, and Niru Fekri Arnold, the core team behind the mobile augmented reality (AR) tool Clean A\R. The mobile app, pronounced “Clean Air,” lets users visualize the air pollution around them by displaying an AR smog effect.   

经过深思熟虑，我们很高兴将今年的奖项授予移动增强现实(AR)工具 Clean A \ R 背后的核心团队Richard Nockles，Dan Stankowski和Niru Fekri Arnold 。 这款移动应用程序发音为“ Clean Air”，使用户可以通过显示AR烟雾效果来可视化周围的空气污染。

“The app is linked to hundreds of state-of-the-art air-quality monitoring stations,” says Nockles, Clean A\R’s creative director and founder of Surround Vision, a studio developing a suite of XR tools for environmental advocacy. He hopes that Clean A\R “will help raise awareness about the dangers of exposure to city pollution, and make it easy to share pollution findings and put pressure on local politicians.”

Clean A \ R 的创意总监，Surround Vision的创始人 Nockles说：“该应用程序与数百个最先进的空气质量监测站相关联。” 该公司开发了一套用于环境倡导的XR工具的工作室。 他希望 Clean A \ R “将有助于提高人们对暴露于城市污染的危险的认识，并使其易于共享污染调查结果并向当地政客施加压力。”

XR is fast becoming a powerful way to effect change, amplified by its accessibility on mobile platforms. By placing these tools in everyone’s hands, it’s easier for people to spread their passion for social issues.

XRSwift成为一种实现变更的强大方法，其在移动平台上的可访问性进一步放大了它。 通过将这些工具放在每个人的手中，人们可以更轻松地传播对社会问题的热情。

“Air pollution is killing us,” Nockles explains. “More than 400,000 early deaths are caused each year in Europe. It’s known as the ‘invisible killer,’ and its impact on our lives is projected to double by 2050. The UK is particularly bad, but the majority of British people don’t recognize the danger because they can’t see it. But what if we could see the poison surrounding us?”

“空气污染正在杀死我们，”诺克斯解释说。 “每年在欧洲造成超过40万例早期死亡。 它被称为“看不见的杀手”，预计到2050年其对我们生活的影响将增加一倍。英国特别糟糕，但是大多数英国人不认识这种危险，因为他们看不到它。 但是，如果我们能看到周围有毒药该怎么办？”

Clean A/R is a tool that informs users about their otherwise invisible surrounding air quality.

Clean A / R是一种工具，它可以告知用户其周围环境空气质量的其他信息。

Clean A\R lets them do just that. The mobile application enables people to share their local experience and pollution measurements on social media to generate greater awareness and, hopefully, stimulate policy change.

干净的A \ R 让他们做到这一点。 该移动应用程序使人们可以在社交媒体上分享他们的本地经验和污染测量结果，以提高意识，并希望刺激政策的改变。

产生影响和意识 (Creating impact and awareness)

Alongside the winner, we’re celebrating the work of five inspired and inspiring finalists who have been awarded an honorable mention prize. Their projects range from a cinematic VR twist on Alice in Wonderland designed to promote awareness about social media addiction, to a multiplayer game that helps citizens speak out about gentrification in their communities.

与获奖者一道，我们正在庆祝五位受到启发和鼓舞的决赛入围者的工作，他们获得了荣誉奖。 他们的项目包括从电影《 爱丽丝梦游仙境》中的 虚拟现实转折， 旨在提高人们对社交媒体成瘾的认识，到多人游戏，帮助市民大声疾呼其社区的高档化。

Each of these projects is distinguished by a strong call to action that fosters tangible impact. Clarity of purpose gives these projects the capacity to change perspectives, habits, and even government policy by making actionable outcomes easy to access, while the immersive nature of XR formats encourages public sympathy and identification. 

这些项目中的每个项目都以强烈呼吁采取行动来增强实际影响而著称。 目的明确性使这些项目能够通过易于获得可行的结果来改变观点，习惯，甚至政府政策，而XR格式的沉浸式本质则鼓励公众表示同情和认同。

“Delivering high-end VR and AR experiences can bring a fresh perspective on environmental issues,” explains Dan Stankowski, Clean A\R’s lead developer. “What’s more impressive is that the engagement levels are through the roof. We’ve found that the tools can create serious impact, opening people’s hearts and minds.”

“提供高端的VR和AR体验可以带来有关环境问题的全新视角，” Clean A \ R 的首席开发人员 Dan Stankowski解释说 。 “更令人印象深刻的是，参与度很高。 我们发现这些工具可以产生重大影响，打开人们的心灵。”

The team at Surround Vision finds that XR and other immersive experiences have a unique potential for nurturing social change. “User testing shows that VR engages on a deeper level, with positive results in education, influence, and behavioral change,” Nockles explains, noting how it’s often referred to as an “empathy machine.” 

Surround Vision的团队发现XR和其他沉浸式体验具有促进社会变革的独特潜力。 Nockles解释说：“用户测试表明，VR的参与程度更高，在教育，影响力和行为改变方面取得了积极成果。”他指出，VR通常被称为“移情机器”。

As activism and advocacy content continues to be developed and refined, greater numbers of communities, non-profits, educators, and researchers are turning to XR platforms. By offering wider access to these tools, we want to help everyday citizens deliver their messages in a way that generates real impact and positive change.  

随着行动主义和倡导内容的不断发展和完善，越来越多的社区，非营利组织，教育者和研究人员正在转向XR平台。 通过提供对这些工具的更广泛访问，我们希望帮助每天的公民以产生实际影响和积极变化的方式传达其信息。
