The Product integration between BIMcollab and GAMMA AR enables a seamless synchronization of field issues identified with GAMMA AR to the BIMcollab platform.
GAMMA AR, a cutting-edge technology company at the forefront of augmented reality (AR) solutions for the construction industry, has been announced as a finalist in the category Technological Innovation of the Year for the prestigious London Construction Awards. Recognized for its groundbreaking contributions to the sector, GAMMA AR’s innovative approach has garnered attention and acclaim, positioning the company as a key player in transforming the way construction projects are visualized, designed, and executed.
Formitas AG, a leading company specializing in the digitization of the construction industry, is making significant strides in the implementation of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and augmented reality (AR) technology. In a groundbreaking partnership with the University Hospital of Cologne and medfacilities GmbH, Formitas is managing the BIM process and use of AR/VR of the Center for Metabolic Research (ZfS) in Cologne, supported by funding from the state of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW). As part of this ambitious project, Formitas is leveraging BIM expertise and introducing augmented reality app, GAMMA AR, to enhance collaboration, streamline communication, and optimize construction processes.
In March 2023, Autodesk conducted a survey of 229 construction and engineering businesses from Australia, Japan, and Singapore to identify the State of Digital Adoption in Construction. In this report are reviewed the common barriers to digital adoption. The findings of this report shed light on the challenges faced by the industry and provide recommendations for businesses to overcome these hurdles.
Augmented reality (AR) has been gaining momentum in various industries over the past few years, and the construction industry is no exception. AR technology has transformed the way we build and design structures and has become an essential tool for architects, engineers, and construction professionals. In this article, we will discuss how augmented reality is used in construction and its benefits.
The construction industry is one of the most important sectors of the economy in the USA and on the European continent with huge construction developments planned for 2023, such as skyscrapers, power plants, and hospitals, which cost several million or even several billion USD/Euros.
Flamanville 3 (a nuclear power plant in France -2,7 m €), Madison Square Garden Sphere (a sphere-shaped music and entertainment arena, USA – $2.8 Billion), and Crossrail (a railway project, UK – 23,3 Billion €) – each of these projects are extremely costly, and of course, design of these projects is based on BIM technology to reduce the cost of construction by identifying potential conflicts and errors early in the design process. Nowadays, no one will argue about the BIM implementation, but what was the way to get to this point, and do we have differences between BIM usage in Europe and US?
We live in a changing world. Each industry around us is rapidly digitizing in response to surrounding challenges: increasing sustainability, geopolitical risks, economic volatility, and human resource challenges in a post-COVID society. The AEC industry (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) is not an exception here. EU is aiming for a 30% cut in its annual primary energy consumption by 2030, the war between Russia and Ukraine has impacted the European AEC industry profoundly by breaking supply chains. High unpredictability and cyclicality led Europe’s AEC industry to rely on temporary staff and subcontractors. And even these temporary teams are hard to find in time and with the required professionalism level – a quarter of construction companies are facing a scarcity of skilled design and construction workers. The answer to cover each of these modern trends is to drive the industry to digital transformation, to implement BIM (Building Informational Modeling) into each step more and more.
GAMMA AR represents a ground-breaking solution for the construction industry, facilitating the seamless transfer of data from Building Information Modeling (BIM) models to construction sites through the power of augmented reality. The tool’s efficacy has been widely recognized across numerous international projects, positioning GAMMA AR as the leading reference for BIM AR. In the following article, we will provide a detailed exploration of the concept of BIM AR and its attendant benefits, with specific reference to the functionality of our proprietary tool, GAMMA AR.
Ron Meester is Project Manager at BAM Bouw en Techniek, a leading construction company in the Netherlands, known for its innovative approach to building and engineering projects. We had the opportunity to meet him and get his feedback on the implementation of GAMMA AR in their construction projects. This article transcribed an insightful interview with Ron to better understand the challenges, how GAMMA AR resolved them, and the resulting benefits.
On April 5 and 6, 2023, the BIM World Paris conference will be held at Porte de Versailles, France. A unique opportunity for GAMMA AR to present its intuitive and innovative solution to the French market. The construction application combining BIM and augmented reality is Premium Partner of this 2023 edition.
