Assignment 3 Proposal

Studying architecture for the past four years we have been focused on the design and detailing of buildings and understanding the construction process has been a great interest of mine but has been a minor focus of our study. I would like to use the skills we have learnt over the last 3 weeks using Augmented Reality to create a 3D building manual.

I have selected to use a building I have recently designed which is being built at the moment. The building manual will be broken up into stages of the construction process. Approx 8-10 stages. From ground works through to interior decorating and landscaping.

Using 3ds Max the construction phases will be animated and controlled via different markers. The markers will be displayed on a Ipad or Iphone allowing people to flick between markers and animations of the building process. This allows them to move freely and be able to stop and return to a construction phase they would like to investigate further.

I would also like the Augmented Reality to be interactive, allowing people to move objects around. This would be in the interior decorating stage or landscaping. Allowing furniture to be moved around. I hope to create a new way of do it yourself building manuals. Using 3D Augmented reality it will create a clear and accurate construction of the building or object. This could be applied at various stages of the building from design through to on site construction manual.

The main tools I will be using for the final assignment are Revit model, 3ds Max to create the stage animations and Build AR for the Augmented Reality.
