Laura Maftei, Dr Dragana Nikolic and Dr Maxwell Parfitt spent 2 days at the CONVR 2013 conference in London last week. The conference was informative, with presentations from around the field of Virtual Reality, including; Applications of Augmented Reality in Construction, New Techniques for gathering Building Information Models using both LIDAR and Photogrammetry, Applications of Multi-Agent Simulations for Crowd Analysis and Automatic Analysis of Safety Breaches using BIM.
There were great opportunities to network and discuss current research through meetings and break-out sessions with leading academics, industrial collaborators and senior members of the construction industry.
