Virtual Reality - A Game Changer

Virtual Reality - A Game Changer

01 July, 2022 07:28 PM
  • Commonly associated with gaming, Virtual Reality (VR) has been slowly revolutionizing almost every industry in the most unimaginable ways. Virtual reality in construction is revealing itself to be quite the game changer with its capability of offering helpful, immersive experiences.

    The technology have made great strides in recent years, and enterprising construction firms have begun using VR to bring new life to an old industry. VR defines the mechanism by which each phase of a construction project is collaboratively simulated by the design and construction team before beginning work on the actual job site.

    With virtual reality, 3D models can be transformed into an experience. You could walk into the model, explore and see the design up close. You could make changes and check the results in real-time. You can spot potential issues even before the first brick is laid and eventually create better projects, saving much time and money in the long run. The major advantage is its ability to provide participants with visibility into broad data set at every stage. This deep dive into project data helps all contractors identify threats early in the design process.
