summary As we step into a new data-based information age, it is important to get citizens involved in the whole design process. Our research tries to build up a user-based urban information system by collecting the data of neighborhood land use preference from all the residents through gaming. The result of each individual decision will be displayed in real time using Augmented Reality technology, while the collective decision dataset will be stored, analyzed and learnt by computer, forming an optimal layout that meets the highest demand of the community. A pre-experiment has been conducted in a. an abstract virtual site and b. an existing site by collecting opinions from 122 participants, which shows that the system works well as a new method for collaborative design. This system has the potential to be applied both in realistic planning processes, as a negotiation toolkit, and in virtual urban forming, in the case of computer games or space colonization.

title Hybrid Fabrication. A free-form building process with high on-site flexibility and acceptable accumulative error
source ACADIA // 2018: Recalibration. On imprecisionand infidelity. [Proceedings of the 38th Annual Conference of the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 978-0-692-17729-7] Mexico City, Mexico 18-20 October, 2018, pp. 82-87
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.2018.082
summary Although digital fabrication has a booming development in the building industry, especially in freeform building, its further application in onsite operations is still limited because of the huge flexibility required in programming. On the contrary, traditional manual fabrication onsite deals perfectly with problems that always accompany fatal accumulative errors in freeform building. This study explores a hybrid fabrication paradigm to take advantage of both in an onsite freeform building project, in which there is a cycling human–computer interactive process consisting of manual operation and computer guidance in real time. A Hololens-Kinect system in a framework of typical project camera systems is used in the demonstration. When human builders perceive, decide, and operate the irregular foam bricks in a complex onsite environment, the computer keeps updating the current form through 3D scanning and prompting the position and orientation of the next brick through augmented display. From a starting vault, the computer always fine tunes its control surface according to the gradually installed bricks and keeps following a catenary formula. Thus, the hybrid fabrication actually benefits from the flexibility based on human judgment and operation, and an acceptable level of accumulative error can be handled through computer guidance concerning the structural performance and formal accuracy.

summary Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) provide designers with new visual mediums through which to communicate their designs. There is great potential for these mediums to positively augment current visual communication methods by improving remote collaboration. Enabling designers to interact with familiar computational tools through external virtual interfaces would allow them to both calibrate design parameters and visualise parametric outcomes from within the same immersive virtual environment. The current research outlines a workflow for parametric manipulation and mesh replication between immersive applications developed in the Unity game engine and McNeel's Grasshopper plugin. This paper serves as a foundation for future research into integrating design tools with external VR and AR applications in an effort of enhancing remote collaborative designs.

title Tracking Robustness and Green View Index Estimation of Augmented and Diminished Reality for Environmental Design - PhotoAR+DR2017 project
source T. Fukuda, W. Huang, P. Janssen, K. Crolla, S. Alhadidi (eds.), Learning, Adapting and Prototyping - Proceedings of the 23rd CAADRIA Conference - Volume 1, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, 17-19 May 2018, pp. 339-348
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2018.1.339
summary To assess an environmental design, augmented and diminished reality (AR/DR) have a potential to build a consensus more smoothly through the landscape simulation of new design visualization of the items to be assessed, such as the green view index. However, the current system is still considered to be impractical because it does not provide complete user experience. Thus, we aim to improve the robustness of the AR/DR system and to integrate the estimation of the green view index into the AR/DR system on a game engine. Further, we achieve an improved stable tracking by eliminating the outliers of the tracking reference points using the random sample consensus (RANSAC) method and by defining the tracking reference points over an extensive area of the AR/DR display. Additionally, two modules were implemented, among which one module is used to solve the occlusion problem while the other is used to estimate the green view index. The novel integrated AR/DR system with all modules was developed on the game engine. A mock design project was developed in an outdoor environment for simulation purposes, thereby verifying the applicability of the developed system.

summary This paper aims at proposing a model for designing a virtual reality experience through the case of TeosVR, in which our interdisciplinary research group created a three-dimensional repository of the architectural heritage of the ancient city of Teos. It offers a three-dimensional modeling and representation system incorporating archeologists' interpretations of an excavation site with limited restitution data. The intention is to test the archeologists' hypotheses using digital tools. Thus, the application created a platform to enhance interactions among experts, including archeologists, architects, engineers, and historians. This paper presents partial findings of our project, which provided the opportunity to observe communication between individuals from interdisciplinary backgrounds.

summary Cultural Heritage is a wide concept. It's what remains of the past generations Cultural Heritage includes tangible culture (such as buildings, monuments, landscapes, books, works of art and artifacts), intangible culture (such as folklore, music, traditions, language and knowledge) and natural heritage (including culturally significant landscapes, and biodiversity). A good preservation, restauration and valorization of Cultural Heritage embraces tangible and intangible culture, actually not evaluated in an holistic way.Cultural Heritage is not only an historical memory of the past, but the mirror of an anthropological reality that characterizes our personal and collective identity within a cultural context. The question is: How can we take into account these thought categories? The model proposed would be an used methodology to analyze the model for data acquisition, processing, modeling and implementation of knowledge on culture and social context through ontologies. The purpose of the research is to analyze the relationship between Cultural Context and Cultural Heritage.The contribution proposes an original approach to Cultural Heritage based on a social and cultural approach, transforming the user as an actor for the acquisition of raw data and cultural knowledge, applying the model to the Archaeological Complex of Casinum, in South Latium.

doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2018.2.773
summary The project aims to investigate the possibility of VR in a combination of visualizing high-dimensional urban data. Our study proposes a data-based tool for urban planners, architects, and researchers to 3D visualize and experience an urban quarter. Users have a possibility to choose a specific part of a city according to urban data input like "buildings, streets, and landscapes". This data-based tool is based on an algorithm to translate data from Shapefiles (.sh) in a form of a virtual cube model. The tool can be scaled and hence applied globally. The goal of the study is to improve understanding of the connection and analysis of high-dimensional urban data beyond a two-dimensional static graph or three-dimensional image. Professionals may find an optimized condition between urban data through abstract simulation. By implementing this tool in the early design process, researchers have an opportunity to develop a new vision for extending and optimizing urban materials.

doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2018.1.401
summary The integration of technology into the design process has enabled us to communicate through various modes of virtuality, while more traditional face-to-face collaborations are becoming less frequent, specifically for large scale companies. Both modes of communication have benefits and disadvantages - virtual communication enables us to connect over large distances, however can often lead to miscommunication, while face-to-face communication builds stronger relationship, however may be problematic for geographically dispersed teams. Mixed Reality is argued to be a hybrid of face-to-face and virtual communication, and is yet to be integrated into the building design process. Despite its current limitations, such as field of view, Mixed Reality is an effective tool that generates high levels of nonverbal and verbal communication, and encourages a high and equal level of participation in comparison to virtual and face-to-face communication. Being a powerful communication tool for complex visualisations, it would be best implemented in the later stages of the building design process where teams can present designs to clients or where multiple designers can collaborate over final details.

summary We will characterize the relationship between Internet of Things (IOT) and Virtual Reality (VR) as the tension between analog and digital domains, organized by several interfaces specifically developed for this study, during de course Interactive Architecture at the Architecture School - UFMG. These interfaces, referred here as programmable meta-objects (MOPs), recombine themselves to form an environment where inputs and outputs of each MOP are made available to other networked MOPs through the Hydra System (!). These MOPs can have both a physical existence (object present in physical space) and a "virtual" existence (it exists in the Virtual Reality environment).

summary Augmented graphical thinking operates by integrating algorithmic, heuristic, and manufacturing processes. The Representation and Ideation Laboratory (RILAB-2018) exercise begins with the application of a parametric definition developed by the team of teachers, allowing for the construction of structural systems by the means of the combination of segmental shells and bending-active. The main objetive is the construction of a scientific model of simulation for bending-active laminar structures has brought into reality trustworthy previews for architectural envelopes through the interaction of parametrized relational variables. This way we put designers in a strategic role for the building of the pre-analysis models, allowing more preciseness at the time of picking and defining materials, shapes, spaces and technologies and thus minimizing the decisions based solely in the definition of structural typological categories, local tradition or direct experience. The results verify that the strategic integration of models of geometric physical optimization and spatial representation greatly expand the capabilities in the construction of the complex system that operates in the act of projecting architecture.

summary In the recent decades, the high-resolution remote sensing, through 3D laser scanning and photogrammetry benefited historic buildings maintenance, conservation, and restoration works. However, the dense surface models (DSM) generated from the data capture have nonstructured features as lack of topology and semantic discretization. The process to create a semantically oriented 3D model from the DSM, using the of Building Information Model technology, is a possibility to integrate historical information about the life cycle of the building to maintain and improving architectural valued building stock to its functional level and safeguarding its outstanding historical value. Our approach relies on an ontology-based system to represent the knowledge related to the building. Our work outlines a model-driven approach based on the hybrid data acquisition, its post-processing, the identification of the building' main features for the parametric modeling, and the development of an ontological map integrated with the BIM model. The methodology proposed was applied to a large-scale industrial historical building, located in Brazil. The DSM were compared, providing a qualitative assessment of the proposed method.

summary The almost seamless integration of computation, fabrication and immersion technologies in architecture not only constitutes potentials for exploring design instances through multiple media but also changes design paradigm from form-formation to form-formation-exploration. In this sense, multiverse of design as proposed in this study and integration of various design technologies from virtual to real aims to advance higher order thinking skills and a more exclusive design exploration in computational design process. Undoubtedly, the multiverse of design cannot be handled without emerging technologies temptingly easing fabrication in both physical and virtual realms. On the other hand, such technologies can easily be deceptive in regard with scale, choice of material, details and etc.Therefore, how and which modes of exploration (physical or virtual) should be integrated into the design process is critical. "Exploration of design" in the realm of new technologies does not only connote a formal exploration of design and its performance but it also becomes a way learning/thinking of design enhancing critical thinking and constructivist learning. Within the scope of this study, the multiverse of a form(ation) is explained throughly and examplified through snowflake pavilion which is issued to 4th year and graduate students in the scope of an elective studio course. Snowflake pavillon comprises physical, virtual and mapped reality as a triskelion for immersive experience for visitors.

summary The paper describes the interdisciplinary course, Escaping Flatlands, focusing on improving communication between students, who were either from the field of architecture or media informatics and human-computer interaction. There were two underlying themes. The first, the integration and augmentation of digital media and haptic models, escaping the flatland of classic architectural media such as paper or screens. The second theme, expert-laymen communication in public participation, was addressed in the contextual theme and content of the course task, the communication between students of different fields, and the presentation of robust working prototypes at an architectural exhibition. Students, in groups of four, developed three interactive architectural models enhanced with digital content. The course resulted in a number of benefits to students, the chairs, and implications for research. It also led to further collabourations between the two universities involved, including cross-over Bachelor and Master Thesis.

summary This paper discusses by way of the authors' recent projects how improvised live dance performance, architectonic composition, and sensing technology converge and inform new opportunities in architectural experimentation. We first lay out the theoretical basis of technology in architectural experimentation in "new rationalities" of technologically augmented aesthetic work. We then briefly describe two projects, X-Change Room and RaumSubsTANZ and the motives behind them. X-Change Room deals with /non-verbal/ ambient display of information and interaction through envelope threshold. RaumSubsTANZ, a short interactive dance composition that highlights the ephemerality of architectural composition augmented by interaction devices. Through the two small projects we attempt to explore a specific technological milieu and reflect on the potentials and challenges of experimentation in architectural composition. The paper presents design methods and techniques that incorporate theories of perception and semiotics by way of an umbrella concept, "ambient displays" and interactive composition. Ultimately, we explore non-verbal communication and theatrical performance as architectural informant that augments semiosis and cognition that pertains to the role of technology at the intersection of primordial senses, cerebral technology, and place-making.

summary Planning in the urban context is always a complex task in which the diverse interests of different stakeholders have to be weighed up against each other. For this to happen, communication is the key leading to successful and sustainable solutions. Often objective factors like the number and diversity of participating stakeholders is the benchmark for successful planning processes. We examine the motivational factors of the different main stakeholder groups and give an insight in the complex system of motivational and hindering factors that need to be considered when designing engaging sensible and sustainable exchange of knowledge and interests.
