Augmented Reality Solution for Construction Site Management
Shapetrace was a construction augmented reality(AR) startup that I co-founded and ran as its CEO between between 2014 and 2018.
Shapetrace was a complete field solution with a mobile AR app that helped construction workers prevent errors. Using a mobile phone on site, architectural 3D designs (BIM) were overlaid the actual space to let workers "see before they started to build".
During construction, the app used 3D detection to compare designs to the actual conditions to measure progress and detect errors, which automatically updated the schedule.
