Late-stage design changes and coordination issues often derail project timelines and inflate costs in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. This session will introduce Autodesk Workshop XR software, a VR-based collaboration tool aligned with the Autodesk ecosystem that enables immersive, real-scale, intelligent-model reviews. When integrated with Autodesk Construction Cloud, it helps multidisciplinary teams detect constructability issues early, validate models against existing conditions, and communicate changes effectively. You will experience a live demonstration of a full BIM-to-XR workflow, connecting Revit and Navisworks models to Workshop XR for 1:1 scale validation and coordination. The session will also explore integrating segmented point cloud meshes into Workshop XR environments for as-built verification. You’ll gain insights into how Workshop XR workflows can reduce RFIs, enhance cross-disciplinary communication, and improve project efficiency—without the need for complex or costly hardware.

Traditional structural reviews, especially for complex projects, often struggle to convey spatial complexities and foster true collaboration. Autodesk Workshop XR is Autodesk’s groundbreaking virtual reality (VR) platform seamlessly integrated with Autodesk Construction Cloud—and it is designed to overcome these barriers. This session will show how Thornton Tomasetti came to use Autodesk Workshop XR and is transforming structural engineering workflows. Learn how to conduct instant, immersive design reviews directly from Autodesk Construction Cloud models, fostering real-time collaboration among engineers, architects, contractors, and owners in a shared virtual space. We’ll explore how this enhances communication, accelerates the identification of structural challenges in renovations, and streamlines issue tracking directly within VR back to Autodesk Construction Cloud. Through practical examples and live demonstrations, discover how the Autodesk solutions deliver tangible benefits, such as reduced errors, cost savings, and, ultimately, more-successful building projects.

At Maire, we’ve successfully integrated Autodesk Workshop XR software into our engineering processes. This integrated platform facilitates model reviews using Meta Quest virtual reality (VR) headsets. Model reviews are critical design phases where engineers meet virtually to discuss project status and coordinate efforts. The use of VR headsets has been particularly beneficial, as it allows designers to immerse themselves in the full-scale 3D model and evaluate design choices effectively. Additionally, the platform enables users to snap and create issues, which can be shared with the team to track and address identified problems. This innovative approach has significantly enhanced our project coordination and design evaluation processes. In the past, we used a VR solution stored on a workstation. Workshop XR is useful in our integrated environment in Autodesk Construction Cloud, where we store all our projects. Workshop XR is a part of our workflow in Autodesk Construction Cloud with the standard use of documents and design Automation, Integration, & Customization module.

Virtual reality (VR) is often used as a tool to present a visualization of the final situation to a project team or the client. Within Dura Vermeer, however, VR is also used in another way: to hold virtual safety sessions. After all, in VR it is actually possible to "experience" an unsafe situation on the construction site. Based on the 4D model—which includes equipment, temporary situations, safety zones, and work zones—an export is made to VR. The foreperson and safety personnel use this VR model during a virtual safety session to investigate whether the project can be built safely. During this industry talk, we'll take you through Dura Vermeer's current processes for creating a VR model, and show you how we use VR to test whether we can construct a project safely. In addition, Dura Vermeer will be joined by a representative of Autodesk's XR team to discuss how Autodesk Workshop XR software is streamlining workflows and advancing this use case on active projects.

Autodesk has been at the forefront of Management in the AEC industry for over a decade, pioneering cloud-connected solutions that enhance global collaboration. As the workforce becomes increasingly distributed, these innovations have set a solid foundation for seamless professional interaction. Now, we are driving the next wave of collaborative transformation by leveraging data on the Autodesk cloud platform to create immersive and intuitive experiences. By connecting data and people from anywhere, we are revolutionizing how work is done, enabling better decisions earlier in the process, and fostering faster, more efficient project completion with less rework. This approach not only saves cost, time, and materials but also paves the way for a sustainable future.

While professional artists use high-fidelity animation techniques—pioneered and refined by Autodesk's animation products MotionBuilder, 3ds Max, and Maya—in games, film, and design production pipelines, we ask the questions: What if the user is not as skilled? What if their requirements for control are not as stringent Could we leverage new input modalities to allow untrained creators to record and edit 3D motion in just a few minutes? We'll discuss the speed and utility afforded by animating in a completely new paradigm: One that allows you to express intent with your body, fingers, face, gaze, and speech while enhancing presence, storytelling, and collaboration in real-time immersive experiences, and engaging your spatial understanding, reasoning, and memory to author 3D animations. Come and hear what our panel of experts from Meta Platforms, Workshop XR, Entertainment and Media Solutions as well as Autodesk Research have to say.
