High-Level Project Summary
We are going to develop an app for detecting the seismic events on the surface of the moon. We develop a 3D model of the lunar surface with the help of Unity software. The Lunar Surface model and stars skybox is obtained from unity's assetstore and blended together using the unity software.This method gives a more detailed idea about the seismic activities in the lunar surface than any other 2d maps, since maps cannot give accurate visuals for the moon's surface. This also gives a good VR experience to actually visualize the moonquake prone areas and detect them efficiently.

Detailed Project Description
The codes of these VR 3D models of Moon are saved in C# language. We connect the seismic datas in the backend using OBSPY python module to the VR 3d model so that, the more the surface is prone to lunarquake, the more will be the frequency of vibration on our screen.
This method gives a more detailed idea about the seismic activities in the lunar surface than any other 2d maps, since maps cannot give accurate visuals for the moon's surface but 3d models can. This also gives a good VR experience to actually visualize the moonquake prone areas and detect them efficiently.
We can also use Google Cardboard SDK to get a real VR experience of our app.
We use softwares like Unity and programming languages like C# and Python (Obspy).

Hackathon Journey
We worked together which motivated team work and inspired us to do more. We tried to resolve our errors many times and helped to overcome each other's mistakes.
