d.ASH Xplorer reality modelling platform compares point clouds with BIM data from Autodesk Construction Cloud
dConstruct Robotics, the Singapore-based developer of SLAM-based mobile mapping solutions including a backpack and wheeled robot, has announced that its d.ASH Xplorer platform is now integrated with Autodesk Construction Cloud.
Project teams can import 3D models from Autodesk Build, Autodesk Docs, or BIM 360 into d.ASH Xplorer to compare 3D point cloud scans with BIM data managed within Autodesk Construction Cloud, offering new capabilities such as Scan2BIM, Scan2Twin, and Scan2Segment.
Scan2BIM is designed to precisely detect changes, ensuring projects remain aligned with design specifications.
Scan2Segment identifies particular objects and geospatial data at scale within a point cloud.
Scan2Twin creates a 3D neural reconstruction of the built environment from point clouds. According to the developers, it enables precise metric measurements and offers a deeper understanding of spatial dynamics within the project together with photorealistic visualisation of the scene.
“Construction firms can minimise rework and avoid scheduling delays by quickly identifying deviations from initial plans,” said James Cook, director of industry & technology partnerships at Autodesk. “By integrating 3D models from Autodesk Construction Cloud with d.ASH Xplorer, builders are able to detect and address issues early before they seriously impact the project budget and timeline.”
d.ASH Pack is an end-to-end 3D mapping solution that uses SLAM technology. It can be mounted on a backpack or on d.ASH-ER, a purpose-built four wheeled robot that performs multiple functions including reality capture.
