AR visualization - Skyscraper | 4Experience.co: Augmented Reality Studio

Skyscraper and apartment AR

The challenge that the client set us against was to create hyper-realistic AR visualizations of building, including the ability to change furniture, details and weather conditions. The application allows users to run the AR module that makes it possible to display the building and apartments on the screen of a smartphone. Users can walk around the skyscraper, which exists only on the plans!

Challenge

Beyond imagination

The creation of architectural objects or development investments has a similar pattern for years: the concept is created in the architect’s head, sketches are created, plans are later, drawings with visualizations may take place. Modern graphics programs have allowed presenting the object in 3d … and now VR technology appears. What’s changing? We put on glasses and we can walk around the facility, which exists only on the plans! It’s a revolution. Thanks to AR visualizations we can make a hyper-realistic building, furnish it, change details, change weather conditions or time of day. That was the challenge that the client set us against.

Process and project scope

Business value

Nothing is impossible!

provides possibilities that were previously beyond the scope of our imagination, namely, paying a visit to a non-existent object,
gives a detailed access to an architectural object before its construction and enables its arrangement and modifications according to the client’s needs and expectations,
makes the improvement to the aesthetic aspect of the building feasible, and moreover, all the modifications are possible before the construction starts, thus it might contribute to the cost lowering as well as time saving.

Technology stack

Amazing technology stack

The application was prepared in the Unity 3D engine. The first part of the AR was based on Vuforia, the second part was prepared for portable devices. It was particularly important, because we had access to two application modules using one mobile device. The models had to be adapted to the capabilities of these devices and were prepared in 3ds Max.
