Building Conversation

Building Conversation is an iPad and iPhone app that imports models from standard CAD environments and renders them in three switchable view modes: a geolocated life-size on-site view with accurate lighting and shadows, a holographic table-top view, and a quick 3D rendered view. Users can toggle between multiple design versions in real time, walk 360 degrees through a project, override the sun-angle lighting controls, and publish public project proposals with customizable surveys to large audiences.

The app is currently free on the Apple App Store and ships with three downloadable sample models viewable in Augmented Reality, Turntable, and Hologram view. Building Conversation Inc. handles project uploads for clients, who export and upload models from their preferred 3D modeling environment without building SDK integrations in-house; the company can integrate requested data into geolocated projects and customize the user interface to each project's needs.
