Transforming a Hand-Drawn Floor Plan into a 3D Model and Viewing it in Virtual Reality

Visualization Digital Construction Advanced Technologies AR/VR

Waltham, MA—Investigation and prototyping of the potential usage of Mobile devices and Virtual reality in AEC applications is an important part of AMC Bridge research program. The latest example of it is the new features implemented in VR-Architecture for Android. 

The new capabilities include a technology demonstration of transformation of a hand-drawn floor plan into a 3D model, as well as an option to view the resulting model using Google Cardboard™ or VR glasses. While transforming floor plan into a model, the application demonstrates the ability to recognize not only doors, windows and walls, but also interior elements.
