Abstract: A method and system for automatically ordering and fulfilling architecture, design or construction product sample requests. Product sample request codes are added to 3D modeling programs, product pages, digital copies of standards books, product catalogs or product sheets. The product sample codes are used with artificial intelligence (AI) methods to automatically order and fulfill requests for architecture, design or construction product samples. The requested architecture, design or construction product samples are collected and shipped in a shipping container that includes graphical and other information that visually and consistently indicates the shipping container includes requested architecture, design or construction product samples. The shipping containers for the requested architecture, design or construction product samples may also include product branding for the manufactures or product suppliers of the requested architecture, design or construction product samples.

Abstract: A method and system for native object collaboration, revision and analytics for Building Information Models (BIM) and other design platforms. The method and system provide X-dimensional (XD) models for building information modeling (BIM) with collaboration and analytics. The method and system allows real-time and static collaboration on native and new composite XD (e.g., 3D, or lower or higher dimensional) object models from within existing 3D modeling BIM programs (e.g., AUTODESK REVIT, AUTOCAD, VECTORWORKS etc.). Collaboration analytics are collected and displayed.

Abstract: A method and system for GPS enabled model and site interaction for Building Information Modeling (BIM) and other design platforms. Collaboration information for actual physical objects at physical locations is automatically collected and associated with virtual objects in virtual object models in a three-dimensional (3D) object modeling programs for a selected project or new virtual objects that did not previously exist are created in the 3D modeling program and associated with the actual physical objects that have been physically added to at a project site. The method and system allows two-way real-time and static collaboration between native and new composite XD (e.g., 3D, or lower or higher dimensional) object models from within existing 3D modeling BIM programs (e.g., AUTODESK REVIT, AUTOCAD, VECTORWORKS, etc.) and the actual physical objects at the actual physical locations.

Abstract: A method and system for creating three dimensional (3D) models from two dimensional (2D) data for building information modeling (BIM). The method and system allow new, 2D, 3D and higher dimensional models to be created for existing 3D modeling programs (e.g., AUTODESK REVIT, AUTOCAD, VECTORWORKS, MICROSTATION, ARCHICAD, etc.). The new models are used to enhance and extend existing 3D modeling programs. The new models can also be used to directly create physical objects (e.g., windows, doors, etc.) represented by the new models with robots, 3D printers and manufacturing machines.

Abstract: A method and system for creating composite three dimensional (3D) models for building information modeling (BIM). The method and system provides the creation of new composite 3D and higher dimensional models from plural different 3D models from plural different manufacturers for existing 3D modeling (e.g., AUTODESK REVIT, AUTODESK INVENTOR, AUTOCAD, SKETCHUP, VECTORWORKS, MICROSTATION, ARCHICAD, SOLIDWORKS, PROE, etc.) The new composite 3D models are used to enhance and extend existing 3D modeling programs. The new models can also be used to directly create new physical objects (e.g., windows, doors, etc.) that never existed before with robots, 3D printers and manufacturing machines.
