The Development of Augmented Reality as a Tool in Architectural and Urban Design (original) (raw)
The development of Augmented Reality as a tool in Architectural and Urban design. Architectural representations consist of mediating artifacts utilising traditional techniques. These techniques have limitations and embody a large degree of abstraction. Consequently there is a need for interpretation and the representations can, instead of mediating, constitute barriers and obstruct communication. This paper presents research on the use of emerging technologies for simulation and visualisation of architectural projects at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design. Augmented Reality (AR) is a system for blending virtual models with real life settings, thus making it possible to experience proposed architectural solutions in full scale at the intended site. The author argues that this technology will have a significant impact on, and applicability for, the architectural design process and the mediating of architectural projects.
