Desenvolvimento de sistema interativo para projetos de ambientação baseados nas tecnologias BIM e realidade virtual

摘要

The BIM technology has been used with success in collaborative environments, in which architects, engineers and other collaborators associate the tridimensional models to a set of information that permeates the whole life cycle of the projects. The models created by the BIM software’s (i.e Revit, Sketchup, others.) include a vast quantity of information that compose a formidable scenario for applications in Virtual Reality. The Virtual Reality technology is an advanced interface technique, in which the user can immerge, navigate and interact in a synthetic computer generated tridimensional environment, utilizing multisensorial channels. Having this concept as base, we see that a huge effort would be needed to implement a platform that supports Virtual Environments from the BIM database reference. Recently the game development software has becoming more accessible, bringing API’s with many functionalities, interaction between objects, systems for physics simulation, lightning, rendering, sound effects, as also interface drivers for a broad range of interactive hardware allowing an exploration of the multisensorial channels. This project has as goal to implement a platform for interior design with interactivity, immersion in Virtual Reality and communication with BIM technologies.
