论文摘要
随着建筑信息建模（BIM）的进步，虚拟现实（VR）和增强现实（AR）技术在建筑，工程和建筑（AEC）行业中具有许多潜在的应用。但是，相对于其他行业的AEC行业采用AR/VR技术的速度速度很慢，部分原因是缺乏可行性研究来检查实施的实际成本与利润的增加。本文的主要目的是了解采用AR/VR技术的行业趋势，并确定AEC研究与行业实践之间的差距。确定的差距可能会带来开发新工具和寻找新用例的机会。为了实现这些目标，进行了两轮调查，在两个不同的时期（相距一年）进行了。分析了158名行业专家和研究人员的回应，以评估AEC行业AR/VR技术的当前状态，增长和储蓄机会。作者使用t检验进行假设检验。研究结果显示，从2017年到2018年，AEC行业的AR/VR利用率显着增加。行业专家还预计，在未来5到10年中，AR/VR技术的使用会有所增长。
With advances in Building Information Modeling (BIM), Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies have many potential applications in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. However, the AEC industry, relative to other industries, has been slow in adopting AR/VR technologies, partly due to lack of feasibility studies examining the actual cost of implementation versus an increase in profit. The main objectives of this paper are to understand the industry trends in adopting AR/VR technologies and identifying gaps between AEC research and industry practices. The identified gaps can lead to opportunities for developing new tools and finding new use cases. To achieve these goals, two rounds of a survey at two different time periods (a year apart) were conducted. Responses from 158 industry experts and researchers were analyzed to assess the current state, growth, and saving opportunities for AR/VR technologies for the AEC industry. The authors used t-test for hypothesis testing. The findings show a significant increase in AR/VR utilization in the AEC industry over the past year from 2017 to 2018. The industry experts also anticipate strong growth in the use of AR/VR technologies over the next 5 to 10 years.
