Scott Aldridge (an innovation and disruptive technology leader at CDM Smith) and Matt Harraka (CDM Smith's national VDC manager) will demonstrate CDM Smith's mixed reality (MR) collaboration platform for VDC and discuss how they've integrated immersive MR into their firm's VDC processes. This MR collaboration platform empowers project teams to interact with 3D design models at scale using Microsoft's wearable holographic computer HoloLens. This creates new ways to visualize designs, share information, and identify problems, letting all involved make more-informed, more-effective, and quicker decisions. Aldridge and Harraka will discuss how incorporating MR enhances collaboration, improves workplace performance, boosts operational efficiency, reduces costs, facilitates input from key operational staff not normally involved, and is effective in educating stakeholders and the public.
