Augmented reality (AR) is recognized as a powerful tool for the digital transformation of the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) sector. AMC Bridge continuously explores state-of-the-art approaches to enhance user experience during the AEC Design process. As a result of such efforts, we are happy to present AR Weather Simulator for AEC, a new AR-based technology demonstration intended to illustrate how AEC designs can be impacted by real-world weather conditions.

AR Weather Simulator for AEC is an iOS®-based technology demonstration of simulating different weather effects applied to a 3D model, superimposing them on the real scene geometry, and viewing the impact of the applied simulations on the uploaded model and scene in AR.
