Project Overview
The VRDPI is intended to be a tool for deep packet capture and analysis in Virtual Reality. Using standard virtual reality controls (Oculus Touch, Vive Motion Controllers) users will be able to select a network interface to capture and a duration of the capture. Packet capture will be completed in the background (seperate thread) and the results will be displayed inside VR.
Project Goals
- Render deep packet inspection results in a virtual reality environment. Utilizing the WinPCap library, Unreal Engine 4 with 99% C++ UE4 API.
- Renders each TCP/UDP session in the form of a packet column. The packet columns representing each session’s packet stream are arrayed in front of the user after capture in the form of a semi-arc.
- Users will utilize standard VR motion controller interface patterns to navigate the VR environment. Including VR teleportation, direct controller to object manipulations, and controller to remote object at a distance manipulations.
- User can also resize a packet to make the data displayed on its front face larger and more clear.
- Information inside the packet is divided into layers which represent each layer of the network stack. Frame layer, Ethernet layer, IP layer, TCP layer, and finally the application layer.
- Each layer will be color coded. Each layer will display its data in hexadecimal format.
