The Jade Signature team
continues to push the edge of technology with Autodesk Live and immersive
Virtual Reality. The project is the first in the company to use VIVE
immersive Virtual Reality as a tool to communicate complex construction stage
issues to owners and stakeholders. Suffolk Senior Project Manager Lance
Dengerud reflected on the experience as “We received a tepid reaction when
first exploring the idea; however, this reception quickly changed to excitement
after we demonstrated how complex project issues can be quickly evaluated and
resolved with the aid of Augmented and Virtual Reality. The VR
environment created by Autodesk Live sources the exact Revit files the project
Architect uses to create the contract documents, hence an owner or stakeholder
can be placed into a data rich environment to make relevant informed decisions
with confidence. This technology is truly an evolutionary step forward in
bettering the workflow between Owners, Architects and Construction Managers.
The project executive leadership
continues to leverage new technologies to keep the complex Jade Signature
project on schedule and within budget.
