Augmented reality visualization of BIM models on jobsites

Cloud-based AR platform that overlays Building Information Models as 1:1 holograms on construction jobsites. Provides real-time access to project data for quality assurance, clash detection, and worker guidance using proprietary spatial alignment technology.

Why This Tool Exists

The Problem

Construction teams struggle to interpret 2D BIM designs during jobsite execution, causing coordination issues between trades, rework due to missed clashes, and safety violations from workers misunderstanding design intent. Manual cross-referencing between plans and physical work is time-consuming and error-prone.

The Solution

Overlays BIM models as 1:1 AR holograms directly onto jobsites using proprietary RISA spatial alignment technology. Workers see real-time design context, clash warnings, and component identification without carrying plans. Works offline and on mobile devices (iPad, HoloLens 2, Magic Leap 2).
