Abstract:

The problems of inspecting urban design proposals are different to that of architecture. The larger context is a crucial aspect in urban design. Generally the issues are not of detailed design but rather understanding space and spatial features. Discussions about proposals use plans and large urban design models. The models are cumbersome and access difficult for collaborative consultation. This paper introduces a prototype for an Augmented Reality system for analyzing and representational design in an urban design scale. The system is designed as a workbench for collaboratively and dynamically exploring in an urban design model.

ScripTAP IDE running on Mac OS X

ScripTAP is a basic authoring tool to ease the development of virtual environments. It provides basic functionality like remote debugging and an IDE for editing Lua scripts. It also facilitates a remote launching system for distributed virtual environments.

[TAP][tap] has a long way of development behind. It is a prototyping system for VR and AR applications. Yet there is very restricted functionality.

Using AR within a real urban design model

Benchworks is a collaborative Augmented Reality application to facilitate in-situ and remote collaboration on urban design proposals. Two users can seamlessly integrate and observe virtual and real objects.

SimplyBibTeX is a PHP web application to render BibTeX bibliographies in different representations. Your coworkers can subscribe to RSS and Atom feeds and get notified if something changes in the particular database. It supports unlimited databases, stores metadata and is using an internal templating mechanism to change the user interface.
