THE SOLUTION
SneakyBox developed an application which enables the user to upload all of a building’s blueprints – in the form of a 3D model – into a database. They can then ‘enter’ the building, walk around it and place features like furniture, lighting, textiles, plumbing and so on within it using their precise dimensions and properties – seeing them in the real context of the building environment and confirming or changing their location and co-ordinates within the model. They can also upload and view detailed information about the features, including web link if required.
In short, the user can create a 3D model, furnish it inside with all its features and see them ‘in situ’ with precise markers of their location and all the information about them which they might need in ‘mixed reality’ – a powerful for designers, architects, builders and all those involved in construction projects.
