Since 2016 the RCA Grand Challenge is an interdisciplinary event that runs each year across the entire School of Design at the Royal College of Art. Around 400 Master and PhD students with design background participate in this event, focusing on tackling key global challenges through collaboration. In 2022, the Grand Challenge was focusing on elaborating topics in the context of Ocean-driven activities. In this context, a VR workshop was conducted with around 40 students with mostly no background in using VR platforms. In the end – after a 4-week design sprint – 10 UNREAL engine-based projects were presented of which we will discuss a selection here. One of the projects managed to be among the overall winning teams of the Grand Challenge 2022.
