Jiang Hong Ren, Yingying Liu, Zhicheng Ruan · DEStech Transactions on Computer Science and Engineering · 2017
This paper explores the opportunities for mobile Augmented Reality based on BIM across the planning, design, construction, and operation and maintenance phases of architectural practice. It identifies that high-level uses for mobile Augmented Reality across these phases will extremely helpful to achieve the overall efficiency in AEC industry. Meanwhile, written primarily as an introduction to the development of a mobile intelligence Augmented Reality system for our designers and workers on the construction phase, the paper also analysis important aspects of the system we designed and provide solutions to lightweight BIM data and 3D registration.
