Resolve’s Post

🔬 Earlier this year, a research paper was published in a American Society of Civil Engineers journal and it evaluated the efficacy of finding operability issues using #VR. Spoiler alert: VR was *very* effective. 📝 The research seized a rare opportunity to scientifically compare two instances of the same building. One building was a control that didn't use VR and the other used VR. ⚠️ On the $600M project, the research found that 93% of the operability issues found in VR were not found by traditional methods. “the identification of 86 previously unidentified issues added value to the MEP coordination process by increasing the quality of the facility design and, more importantly, preventing issues during the building’s operations phase.” Girgin et al. (2023) This research is groundbreaking progress in quantitatively demonstrating that XR reduces late stage changes on construction projects, especially in mission critical projects where operability after turnover is of high importance. I'm excited for the industry to continue reducing project risk using immersive tools like Resolve and even more excited to see more quantitative data backing up the use of the technology!

Virtual reality (VR) spatial measuring tools are innovative applications that leverage VR technology to measure physical spaces in real-time or for simulation purposes. These tools typically involve: 1. Virtual Environment: Users wear VR headsets to enter a simulated environment. 2. Measurement Features: Within this virtual space, tools allow users to measure distances, dimensions, heights, and other spatial parameters. 3. Real-time Feedback: Some advanced VR measuring tools provide real-time feedback and visualizations, enhancing accuracy and usability. 4. Applications: These tools find applications in architecture, interior design, construction planning, and even in education and training where understanding spatial relationships is crucial. Examples: Companies like Trimble offer VR solutions like SketchUp Viewer for VR, allowing architects and designers to experience and measure their designs in a virtual environment. This technology helps in visualizing projects before construction begins and making informed design decisions based on accurate spatial measurements. Such tools not only streamline the design and planning phases of projects but also facilitate better communication and collaboration among stakeholders by offering a shared virtual space for understanding and decision-making.

Enscape is a staple in the architectural rendering space. But... at first Moritz Luck wasn’t trying to transform architectural visualisation. In fact, he and his co-founder Thomas Willberger were chasing VR dreams with an omnidirectional treadmill project. But one key insight flipped their focus: Architects didn’t want VR—they wanted speed. "We offered VR to architects and they said, ‘No, this is too slow!’” What followed was a pivot that led to Enscape, a real-time rendering tool now revolutionising how architects visualise their designs. This week's Bricks & Bytes Bulletin dives into: ‣ How a failed VR experiment birthed an industry game-changer. ‣ How Enscape sold their business with no sales team ‣ The magic behind community and product-led growth Want to know how Enscape became a global success story?

Spatial computing has the potential to reshape how we approach innovation by merging digital and physical environments, opening up new possibilities for product development and leading to quicker adaptation in industries requiring high precision and flexibility. Spatial computing refers to technologies like Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), and Mixed Reality (MR) that allow users to interact with digital elements in a 3D environment. AR overlays digital content onto the real world, VR immerses users in a fully virtual space, while MR blends both physical and digital elements. This approach enhances product design by enabling real-time collaboration, iterative refinement, and virtual testing, reducing costs and time associated with traditional prototyping and physical testing methods. Spatial computing can help teams work remotely, accelerate product cycles, and improve the overall quality of output through more detailed and immersive simulations. #SpatialComputing #AR #VR #MR

Step into the Future of Architecture with VR Glasses! 🚀🔮 Imagine designing buildings not just on paper, but in a fully immersive virtual world. That's the power of virtual reality (VR) glasses in architectural design! VR glasses are turning architectural dreams into interactive realities. Architects can now step inside their designs, exploring every nook and cranny at full scale. It's like being the protagonist of your own architectural adventure! But it's not just about the experience - VR glasses are reshaping the way architects work. With intuitive controls and real-time adjustments, architects can sculpt their creations with the flick of a wrist and the wave of a hand. It's design wizardry brought to life! And the best part? VR glasses aren't just for the studio. They're portable, they're versatile, and they're ready to wow clients wherever you go. Picture this: presenting your latest design in a virtual walkthrough that leaves clients speechless and stakeholders inspired. That's the power of VR glasses in action! So, buckle up and get ready to journey into the future of architecture with VR glasses. The possibilities are limitless, the experiences are unforgettable, and the designs? Well, they're out of this world! 🌟💼 #Architecture #DesignInnovation #VRRevolution

How can emotional and aesthetic aspects be injected into the design process of a virtual reality (VR) social space for the elderly? The relevant collaborative work from the #EU STARTS project MindSpaces EU was published in MDPI "applied science" journal. Inspiring work from valued partners from Centre for Research & Technology Hellas (CERTH), HK CityU, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH), Nurogames GmbH, Association E-Seniors and up2metric. up2metric's contribution was on reconstructing geometrically and visually accurate, highly detailed, 3D models of indoor environments, to use them in the context of emotionally relevant architectural redesign of spaces. To support this, a custom #mobilemapping platform was developed.

Our CTO and Co-Founder Peter Fisher was interviewed by Creative Denmark and BLOXHUB.   The interview was about the XR industry and the potential it has within city planning, architecture and construction to answer the question “How can VR improve the way we live and work?” and “How do we design a future, where sustainable change is the only option?”.   “It will eventually make it possible for a team to review a city plan in 3D and easily switch from an overview to the pedestrian’s perspective and go below ground to layers of sewage”   Read the full interview here; https://lnkd.in/dZPXDe5d   #CreativeDenmark #Cityplanning #Architecture #XR #Construction #VR #AR #Immersive #Visualization #VirtualReality

At NMY Mixed Reality Studio, we believe that empathy is key to understanding the daily challenges faced by those with visual impairments. 🔍 That's why we've partnered with ZEISS Vision to create an immersive simulation that allows you to see the world through the eyes of people who are visually impaired. Imagine playing a round of table tennis with conditions like scotoma or cataracts. 🏓 Our VR experience, enhanced with eye-tracking technology, provides a realistic and immersive way to understand the daily challenges faced by those with visual impairments. Our goal is to spread awareness and understanding about the reality of living with visual impairments. Because despite advanced technologies, many eye diseases like scotoma and cataracts are not sufficiently researched or understood. The reality of affected patients is often not fully captured in medicine, leading to incomplete diagnoses and inadequate support. This is not just a tech demo. It’s a powerful tool for education and awareness. Whether at trade shows, events, or optical shops, our VR technology is portable, easy to set up, and impactful.
