The Power of Augmented Reality (AR) in Construction

Autodesk Construction Cloud

In healthcare, AR is being used to visualize organs or simulate procedures. Mixed reality combines virtual reality and augmented reality to immerse users in visual content while letting them remain aware of their physical surroundings. These labels can then bring up text or even 3D models to communicate safety or hazard information.
