Virtual reality, augmented reality and BIM tools have become staples during planning and construction of most large projects, but are also proving valuable in unexpected ways for those who get creative and resourceful with the data, according to leaders from Jacobs Engineering Group, Gilbane Building Co. and Windover Construction.
"While the focus of these applications has been visualization of and immersion in building design, a wealth of other utilizations for these technologies exists throughout the project and into facility lifecycle...It doesn’t have to stop there. Data from BIM and VR and AR can be a huge value-add to your clients if you supply and make use of it."
