OpenSpace AI Collaboration in Construction

Construction site documentation is a laborious process involving equipment like tripods and scanners and appointing outside experts for operating the said equipment. But, have you ever envisaged as what would happen if the job site documentation process becomes passive with processing time in just a few minutes instead of the hours required for capturing 3D or 360-degree solutions? A big cheers to the OpenSpace’s AI photo documentation solution, which can facilitate in materializing the process into a reality.

Idea Behind the Creation of OpenSpace Technology

Now, what’s the idea for creating OpenSpace technology? Well, it is about creating Google Street Views for the construction site. The passive experience is shaped by acclimatizing Google’s technique of capturing street view photographs across the world, except with a 360-degree camera attached on a hardhat.  

• While taking a normal site walk, the users only have to press record on the supplementary smartphone app and photographs seized every half-second will be inevitably attached to the project plans. The walking track is mechanically calculated and photos are allied, knotted, and charted to the floor plans. 

• The passive nature of the documentation process is extremely valued as it provides the capability to emphasize other things. AEC professionals can use the walk for getting the time to examine the details of the building, inspecting quality, reassuring safe work practices, and executing conversations over the phone.

• At the core of the job site capture & mapping lies the OpenSpace Vision Engine, which is an AI system integrating computer vision, 3D renovation & visualization of big data. The engine for vision can learn and hence the more a user walks on a construction site, the faster results can be obtained. 

• The OpenSpace technology can also be integrated with products like PlanGrid, ProCore, and BIM360. Users can also use a cloud-based BIM Viewer for comparing the real circumstances and progression of a job site against the model, with facets like the ability to turn on and off layers and take the measurements of snaps.

Benefits of OpenSpace Technology 

• The quick rate of capture for taking photos in various locations against walking the project site

• Through capturing an image every half-second, the documentation becomes easier & detailed

• Easy to find photos for a specific area

Key Takeaways of OpenSpace AI Reality Capture

• Reduced Time Spent on Capturing Project Site Documentation

• Production of Meticulous Site Progress Documentation

• Capability to Show the Progress of the Project Owner during Meetings

• Ability to Show Existing Site Conditions after Demolition for informing the MEP Design-Build Team during Coordination

• Simplified Request For Information & Submittal Coordination

Finally, open space technology helps to save time for the project which ultimately leads to financial savings. The construction professionals no longer have to get stuck with the running cameras for several days at a time, instead, they will be open to their responsibilities, facilitating the project to run smoothly.
