AUGmentecture combines the two worlds of architecture related software and the science of augmented reality. Currently in the construction industry, once the plans have been developed and issued to the contractor, it is then the contractors responsibility to view the two dimensional plans, construction documents, and fully understand the intent of the designer. Normally the design renderings of th
e project are printed as hard copy and presented for visual understanding of the intent of the project. To view an augmented reality image one needs to develop the model, transfer the object into the augmented software, print the standard marker, and view the model by pointing the camera to the marker. The marker in most cases is standard and not unique to the model. So you may be able to view multiple models by the same marker. The purpose of AUGmentecture is giving the ability to the end user to view any document in 3d by creating a unique marker in each individual document. AUGmentecture streamlines the entire augmented reality setup, and simplifies the printing, and processing of the models. Think of it as printing a PDF, but it would be in the augmented reality format. The Current Pain In The Design Industry
Currently, design communication and collaborating with end users are time consuming & costly. Sharing ideas with clients is not efficient and Interactive design intent with contractors is limited. Transferring design model to augmented reality format is complicated & time consuming. The Solution
AUGmentecture streamlines the setup, upload and processing of the models into augmentected reality.
