Texas A&M’s new BIM CAVE
9:00 am
One of the few areas left where immersive environments like the CAVE still are useful, other than as a tour stop, is in the field of Architectural Visualization. Today at 4pm, Texas A&M’s Langford Architecture Center will be holding a grant opening of their newest immersive environment: An impressive 12-screen curved wall with support for most mainstream BIM tools like RevIt.
The new 12-display array, realized by a $50,000 gift from the Department of Construction Science Industry Advisory Council, is the second version of the immersive visualization system. The first iteration, a three-screen setup, was created with discretionary funds from the College of Architecture.
Kang said the new facility has already captured the attention of two construction companies engaged in campus building projects that wish to use the BIM CAVE for coordination meetings with subcontractors.
