“…However, solutions are mostly proposed by architectures and engineers, while the other stakeholders can provide feedbacks and approvals. In [41] is described an interesting example of an advanced AR workbench for the preliminary phases of urban planning, which enables a multi-layer representation of the physical and digital contents. The system permitted merging three different kinds of information: 2D paper drawings; physical models; and digital simulations able to show the effects of the atmospheric conditions (e.g., wind) on the proposed urban plan.…”

Abstract:The design of large dams is a collaborative activity with relevant social and political implications. Planning such large infrastructures requires involving all the interested stakeholders, making shared decisions, tracing the design process. There are currently not many Virtual Prototyping tools to support this collaborative design process. In this paper, we propose a participated planning support system based on mobile and Augmented Reality technologies which allows different stakeholders to take part in the review of a large dam project through an application that automatically acquires information available online, allows all stakeholders to share information, and finally records everything for a subsequent analysis. The development of the application, as well as its use in two case studies and a user study, are described in the paper.

“…A lot of AR experimentations and researches are directed toward the architectural design process as the strong tools. As we known, one previous example of the collaborative space for architectural design is the Luminous Table project (H. Ishii, et al, 2002) [15] that also provided users with a simulated view of entire urban planning stage around the table (Figure 2-Left). Actually, this application proceeds from the result of a combination between 3 issues: the physical wireframe model, digital model and traditional drawing papers.…”

“…For example, the Luminous Table (H. Ishii, et al, 2002) [14] and the Authur system (T. B. Moeslund, et al, 2004) [15] were known as the previous examples of architectural collaborative which were defined as the fusion conceptualities of the virtual-real working phases. Yet, in this example, we propose another combination manner of the AR assistance for collaborative urban planning discussion within indoor environment.…”

This article presents a study on Augmented Reality (AR) development as a new performance approach for collaborative space of urban design work. Here, the participants-e.g. architects, structure engineers, equipment vendors, etc-can view an urban design process through AR scenes by Head-Mounted Display (HMD) glasses. Nowadays, the AR technology has been supported as a great graphical computing technology which promises to offer several advantages of applying for the digital architecture and construction fields. The AR effects enable users to examine 3D project models integrated into real environment in an intuitive way and real-time. Therefore, this research focuses on an establishment a kind of smart AR discussion space-the Augmented Reality Conference Desk (named as ARCdesk for short). As the result, the participants can examine a planning process of urban design work in 3D/4D multi-phases by intuitive ways. In particular, all participants also can examine the digital urban mock-up from free views and they also can interact with whole models (or each part) during architectural discussion. As the novelty of research, the participants were suggested to manage and create the input digital urban models basing on use a range of available Google Earth facilities which are usability for architectural design, such as the Google SketchUp, Google Building Marker and Google 3D Warehouse. This example also involves the conceptual combination of AR and 4D construction simulation within indoor condition in order to simulate the phases such urban growing up. The implementation bases on the main technical theme: the imagery vision-based AR tracking and the Tangible Augmented Reality.

“…There are a number of efforts to develop ubiquitous computing environments for CAD applications that incorporates tangible user interfaces for CSCW (Computer Supported Collaborative Work), including augmented urban planning [10 ], navigational blocks [11],Aegis Hyposurface [12], etc. Our treatment of tangible media has similarities with the augmented urban planning system developed by Ishii et al [10 ], whereby physical models and digital simulation are overlaid into a single information space.…”

This paper presents an interactive CAD platform that uses a tangible user interface to visualize and modify 3D geometry through manipulation of physical artifacts.The tangible user interface attempts to move away from the commonly used non-intuitive desktop CAD environment to a 3D CAD environment that more accurately mimics traditional desktop drawing and pin-up situations. An important goal is to reduce the apparent complexity of CAD user interfaces and reduce the cognitive load on designers. Opportunities for extending tangible design media toward an interactive CAD platform are discussed. 154
