2:00pm - 2:30pm Digital Job Walks: How to Create & Use 360 VR Tours
Wednesday Oct 19 - Location: Level B

Description

Virtual Reality is changing the way people interact with the world in their personal and work life. Especially for old industries as fundamental construction, there are many interesting ways to use VR to create more effective workflows. One huge improvement of the workflow on construction sites will be something HoloBuilder calls "Digital Job Walks". On HoloBuilder.com, people can easily upload and link sphere images (that now can be taken easily with 360° cameras like the Theta S) to Virtual Tours. Construction Professionals, they can add Text as well as 2D & 3D objects to the sphere images to visualize ideas and make annotations. The online service allows to created Digital Job Walks quick and easy which save time and money for builders throughout the entire construction process. Advantages can be found at all stages of a construction project. During the bidding process, subcontractors can make more realistic and accurate bids because they can visit the planned construction site virtually before making a bid. During the construction project, professionals don’t have to travel back and forth between construction site but can visit all sites remotely instead. The virtual visits do not only save travel costs, more frequent updates over the cloud will also make the identification and reaction time to mistakes much faster, which notably reduces rework costs. While these are just the main advantages, there are many more which will lead to the use of VR and AR in construction. While the idea has been around for a while, HoloBuilder's easy and simple creation process of Digital Job Walks is transforming the industry.
