Future BIM
Published in Jonathan Ingram, Understanding BIM, 2020
One can easily envisage using an AR system such as the Microsoft Hololens 2 System and Google voice systems to construct a building. Gestures, voice commands, and perhaps a screen will allow the user to use the system intuitively — the voice commands, discussed in the next section.

Our system is designed to run on Microsoft’s HoloLens 2 in conjunction with Microsoft’s Mixed Reality Toolkit (MRTK) and Unity. The device provides a FOV for augmented viewing of 43° horizontally and 29° vertically. Moreover, previous research found that HoloLens 2 offers an eye tracking system with a maximum sampling frequency of 30 Hz and a range of ∼40° in both directions horizontally and a vertical range of ∼20° in the upper direction and 40° in the lower direction (Seeliger et al., 2021). The latter study further found that the eye tracking system of HoloLens 2 measures accurately (0.51° at 1 m distance) and precisely (SD = 0.30 at 1 m distance). The HMD also provides speech as a user input option, which is used especially for data collection (User Study 1).

We have developed a prototype platform to rapidly explore the usability of cross-device interaction for AR in physical tasks. The platform has the ability to interact with AR HMD via mid-air gestures, a smartphone, and a smartwatch. The AR HMD used was the Microsoft HoloLens 21 which has a 52° diagonal Field of View (FOV), 43° horizontally, and 29° vertically. The HoloLens 2 has SLAM visual tracking and hand tracking. The smartphone used was the HUAWEI Enjoy 502 with a 6.75-inch screen size and 199 g weight. In order to make the smartphone wearable, a phone case with a necklace was used. The smartwatch used was the HUAWEI Watch 33 with a 1.43-inch screen size and 54 g weight.

Microsoft Hololens2 is adopted as hardware for AR devices of ARE platform (Figure 2 (1)). The Microsoft Hololens2 weighs 566 grams and includes four visible-light cameras, two infrared cameras, a 1-MP time-of-flight depth sensor, and an inertial sensor. In addition, the operating system of Hololens2 is Windows Holographic. Hololens2 is equipped with the Snapdragon 850 computing platform, which provides hand tracking, eye tracking, voice commands, spatial mapping, mixed reality capture, and 6 degrees of freedom (DoF) tracking.
