Here is an image of one of my desks of late.
I have a few desks.... I like the stand up desk, it's where I go when I need to get away from my usual desk (clutter) to be able to focus on something, in this case setting up the Virtual Reality software with our new Alienware laptop and OculusRift goggles.
Recently I've been playing with Augmented Reality more, especially since now there are apps for your phone and web sites that make it so much easier to push your model into AR.
I downloaded the Augment app and set up a trial account with them.
Works great! Very similar to when I first tried AR in 2012 (check out this blog posting)
I tried it on a number of different files that I have specific for this type of application, the Revit models I have are typically stripped out of views and also interior components so it's just the shell. The tower model I tries works well when exported at STL, actually all the models work well as STL expect the materials do not show up. OBJ works good, the materials show up great however for the larger files it takes too long to load on the app on my phone.
I can see huge potential with this technology such as site planning, promotional and marketing material, visualization aid for clients, design options etc...And it's lots of fun and easy to do!
Very impressive, it's a quick way to impress people!
