VR and AR Demonstrations at Architecture Builder’s Expo

ABX 2016 and 2017

  • Many professionals in architecture and construction know that VR and AR will change the way they work but do not know how to get started. 

  • Both years, I organized a dozen early adopters and providers of VR and AR for the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) sector. We showcased design and technology demonstrations on the floor of ABX for two days. 

  • Both years, the exhibit attracted attention, spreading awareness of the technology in the industry, and building productive relationships.

  • Architects:  Shepley Bulfinch, Payette, CBT, HMFH, Sasaki, SMMA, TKA, Arrow St.

  • Construction & Engineering:   Windover, Consigli, Turner, VHB, 

  • Tech and Other:  Wayfair, Elumenati, BluHomes, Microdesk, Ver-Tex Lighting

  • Team:  Jacobson (everything), James Martin (2017 organizing), Vasili Uspensky.

Server Room Simulation
2016-2017  for Consigli Construction

  • Consigli was building a big campus for Mathworks, and needed a design review of the server room with top management on both sides. 

  • Using CAD models and other documentation, my artist team created a VR walk-though simulation, as it should be after construction. I read the documents, managed the team, and assembled the application in software.

  • Mathworks was happy with the overall design and greenlit construction.

  • The simulation also revealed problems that not usually apparent until physical construction has begun.

  • Tools:  HTC Vive, Unity, Revit, C#, 3DS-Maxx, Maya, Photoshop.

  • Team:  Myself (management & software), Donaghey (Artwork & Programming), Barret Byrns (Artwork), Bohlke (Revit).

3D Interactive Simulations of Planned Digital Signage in Times Square.

2015 for Sensory Interactive

  • Sensory Interactive manages content on giant digital billboards in New York City's Times Square and other places. They had to show an important client what their ads would look like, in context, after deployment. 

  • We simulated the target building, the surrounding cityscape, and the billboards. Client provided the video content.

  • The result was a clearly understandable, dynamic, 3D model, which satisfied key questions for Sensory's client. We did this for four different projects.

  • Tools:  Unity, 3DS Maxx. 

  • Team:  Jacobson (Programming), Chadwick (Art).
