Abstract
The potential of Building Information Modeling (BIM) to support a transformation of the processes of design and construction has been evident in the construction industry. A current BIM topic that requires attention is the integration of BIM with Virtual Reality (VR), where the user visualizes a virtual world through interactive devices or a total immersion. VR combines several devices for interaction, creating virtual environment, and this must followed by studies concerning how to use devices or how to establish links for the presentation of information contained in a BIM model. By adding VR, the BIM solution can address retrieving and presenting information and increasing efficiency on communication and problem solving in an interactive and collaborative project. The text presents a review of actual perspective of the use of VR applied in 4D/BIM models.
