Virtual Design Review and Planning Using Augmented Reality and Drones

Drone with Augmented Reality could, conceivably allow a complete fly-over of a building, bridge or other structure before actually building it in areas where human access is difficult. Engineers, Architects, Planners, and Site foremen can use augmented reality to visualize the various phases in the project beforehand. Launch the drone interacting with the software where a 3D model of the building is included, and we can see the future building from different angles as the drone flies around. Move drone to see complete picture and fitment of the model in the scenario from all directions. After such a virtual tour in the real environment, we can understand and get a better information on the building architecture and location. Augmented Reality is the technology used to provide an immersive experience for Constructors and Engineers. Drones can fly into areas where human access is difficult. Similarly construction of bridges, roads etc will be helpful with this technology.
