Dive into the immersive world of Spatial Computing and discover how it’s reshaping the future of architecture and construction. Whether you’re a seasoned professional in the field or just stepping into the realm of immersive technology, let’s get a better understanding of the profound impact of spatial computing. It’s no longer science fiction when imagining architects walking through virtual buildings before they’re constructed, builders visualizing complex structures on-site with augmented reality. Join us as industry experts share compelling real-world examples, from things such as virtual design collaboration to on-site augmented reality assistance. Uncover how these technologies are revolutionizing architectural visualization, construction planning, and project execution. Let’s demystify the jargon and explore the exciting potential that spatial computing brings to architecture and construction.

Join us for the first stage program of The Next Evolution series of 2024, February 7th at 5:30pm at 1871 in person, 6:00pm at Virbela Open Campus, and 6:15pm for the YouTube Live Stream as we talk about Spatial Computing in Architecture and Construction.

For our Virtual Venue, we will be using Virbela‘s Open Campus to host the program. We suggest that you download, set-up, get familiar with the Virbela program and environment prior to the program, as we will be unable to provide support during the event.

The virtual environment resembles a physical space, so you will be able to talk with other attendees during open networking both before and after the presentations. The sound is spatialized, so if at any point it feels too loud, feel free to move your conversation to another part of the room where there are less people.
