How AR & VR is being used in the Construction Industry

Design phase

Visualize design before construction

An Architect / Engineer can foresee and experience his design & can have a better understanding of buildings even before they are built. Virtual reality enables Architects/engineers to pre-visualize their design so that the output is suitable from all aspects, not only in functional but also in aesthetics.

Design phase

Collaboration within Teams

Collaboration with various project stakeholders or even within the team has always been a major issue in the construction industry. Virtual Reality makes it easy for the team members to collaborate and coordinate at a 1:1 scale and helps you go from design to construction more efficiently.

Construction Phase

Training the Construction Workers

Construction workers can themselves get familiar with the work with the help of AR/VR devices on the construction site, where they can experience real-world situations without any of the associated safety risks, by using work instructions, prepared training sequences, or “remote assistance” directly from the experts

Construction Phase

Try and test in AR

The beauty of AR is, that the design output can be overlaid as the virtual content on the physical site environment. This enables us to Pre-check installation plans with the current as-built to identify potential clashes, Ensure accurate fit of the pre-fabricated parts - before sending the orders to manufacturers.

Operations and Maintenance phase

Tracking Above Ceiling / Underfloor Services

For the Pre Existing buildings undergoing renovation or carrying out retrofit activities, the hidden above the ceiling or the underfloor services, may it be HVAC, Electrical, Fire fighting, or PHE can be easily tracked with virtual models overlapped in the physical environment by using augmented reality.

Operations and Maintenance phase

Resolving Building Service Request

AR & VR technology can also be used as an intelligent solution in operation and maintenance. Finnish company Granlund - Our esteemed partners in offering BIM for Facility Management, providing Energy management, maintenance management & asset management solutions, has developed the software which enables AR for FM.

We at Desapex have been investing in these tools and technology right from our inception, we use professional grade AR & VR devices.
