Behmel, Andreas; Kienzl, Thomas und Höhl, Wolfgang (11. September 2014): [DEMO] MRI Design Review System. A Mixed Reality Interactive Design Review System for Architecture, Serious Games and Engineering using Game Engines, Standard Software, a Tablet Computer and Natural Interfaces.

Abstract

Experience and control your design using natural interfaces! Most of todays conventional design review systems require special programming skills for preparation and high-capacity hard- and software for demonstration. Interacting with 3D data sometimes can be complicated. Today we face five major problem fields using design review systems: Interaction with 3D data, navigation in 3D space, controlling design alternatives, design presentation using less extensive hardware, content development without special software and programming skills.
