Pseudo- World: The Role of Augmented Reality and AI in Construction and Retrofitting

Abstract

The construction industry is undergoing a revolution with the integration of augmented reality (AR) and artificial intelligence (AI). These technologies are transforming the way construction projects are planned and executed, leading to increased productivity, enhanced design visualization, and more informed decision-making. Our research focuses on developing Pseudo World, a platform that converts 2D house plans into interactive 3D models, allowing for real-time exploration and collaboration through AR. By combining machine learning techniques, pathfinding algorithms, and graph-based models, our approach optimizes spatial planning and retrofitting decisions. This innovative solution enables immersive visualization, enables more effective defect detection and management, and streamlines construction workflows, thereby positioning AR as a driver of innovation in construction planning.
