How can we integrate BIM with AR? Building Information Modeling (BIM) Building information modeling (BIM) is one of the foremost popular technologies contributing to information handling. However, the technology’s contribution to fieldwork is extremely limited thanks to the limited interaction between the important and virtual worlds. Integrating BIM with augmented reality (AR) is believed to highly increase BIM’s applicability to fieldwork. Therefore, the aim of the study is to look at the credibility of BIM integration into AR (AR–BIM) within the housing industry. A case study is adopted, computing the AR–BIM system through Structure Sensor, Unity 3D, and C#. The results show that BIM is compatible for integration with the AR platform. Although the preliminary AR–BIM system isn’t perfect compared to the marketed product, the initial investment cost of this technique is far cheaper, while conserving the advantages of BIM in AR. This study is vital to boost aware...
