Thanks to this program created by fologram, without leaving the construction site, the masons could interact with the holographic model to change the course of the bricks that are shown, which makes the demonstration project next to the University of Tasmania complete in just 7 hours of masonry.
Description of project by Fologram
Fusing augmented reality with the physical space, Fologram seeks to facilitate the construction of complex designs (for example, parametric designs that require a series of measurements, verification, and specific care) through digital instructions that are virtually superimposed into the workspace, directing a step-by-step guide for bricklayers during the construction process.
Fologram expects that augmented reality will gradually eliminate drawings on construction sites, avoiding errors and misinterpretations, and increasing the speed and precision of the construction process.

'Research institutions and large companies are working with industrial robots to automate these challenging construction tasks. However, robots aren’t well-suited for unpredictable construction environments, and even the most sophisticated computer vision algorithms cannot match the intuition and skill of a trained bricklayer"
