Augmented Reality Remodeling

A leading technology-driven manufacturer of highly customized interiors has developed a proprietary augmented reality (AR) system that superimposes images of potential renovations over existing spaces, allowing clients to view the space in 3D before it’s built.

The 3D design and manufacturing software, dubbed ICE®, allows users to explore different design scenarios while they’re in the space, and automatically captures pricing information for materials, engineering, manufacturing and installation. The system can also move walls and flag unsafe structural configurations. It runs on Microsoft’s HoloLens and Google’s Tango platforms, is CAD compatible, and supports common file formats to make contract bidding seamless.
