Assignment 3 - Final Submission



With design and building technology continuously improving it is time that building documentations and construction manuals move with it. The Augmented Reality construction manual briefly goes through each of the construction phases of a development.

This innovative technology allows clients, architects and builders to view the development in a way never seen before. From this frame work, further detail, and documents can be created and viewed using Augmented Reality.

Using Build AR and 3ds max I have created the starting point of a construction manual also a very helpful design tool. Each of the building stages are animated of the associated markers. The animations give brief but very insightful view of the building during the different stages.
With 3d modelling the way of the future for our industry this tool could be used in various ways. From the design stage showing clients spaces within the building, applying materials, furniture to create a deeper understanding of the building and clarity in the design. Also each of the stages show could be further detailed to provide a 3d documentation for builders and tradesman. Augmented reality engineer details, through to interior design.

Unable to use Ipad for my markers due to the glare on the screen also Ipad image viewer has a black background so the maker boarder is not visible
