Telepresence
A variation of visualizing
complete computer
generated worlds.
Links remote sensors in the
real world with the senses
of a human operator. The
remote sensors might be
located on a robot.
Useful for performing
operations in dangerous
environments.
Distributed VR
BOOM is a head
coupled stereoscopic
display device. Screens
and optical system are
housed in a box that is
attached to a multi-link
arm.
Data Glove
The other potential health and safety issue is physical injury. When you are
immersed in a virtual world, it is very easy to forget where you are. While
architectural visualisation shouldnt encourage the same kind of reckless
abandon you might get from shooting aliens, you still need to be careful.
VR can also have a positive effect on health and safety. Human Condition
Safety is developing a fully immersive VR platform designed to increase
safety of construction workers and reduce workplace risk. The companys
SafeScan software will help workers learn the correct ways to perform
tasks, especially dangerous ones, in a hyper-real gaming environment
that uses BIM model data.
PARAMETRIC DESIGN
Parametric design is a
dynamic,
rule-based
process controlled by
variations
and
parameters, in which
multiple design solutions
can be developed in
parallel.
It supports the creation,
management
and
organization of complex
digital design models.

Shenzhen Bao'an
International Airport's
new Terminal 3, finished
in 2013, designed by
Italian architect
Massimiliano Fuksas,
with parametric design
support by the
engineering firm
Knippers Helbig, is an
example for use of
parametric design and
production technologies
in a large scale building.
