The built environment, all its value chains and life cycles have opened their doors to digitalization. This will bring major changes to everything we do and get done. It already means drones with cameras taking images interpreted by AI and updated to project model – as well as crowdsourced AR/VR design, automated prefabrication, bricklaying/drilling/welding robots, maintenance sensors.

What not.

After decades of CAD and one of BIM, the changes have finally gathered pace. We can imagine new applications for the next year, but beyond that we’ll most likely stay constantly surprised of new solutions coming to the marketplace.
