Abstract: A method and system for automatically ordering and fulfilling architecture, design or construction physical product and/or product sample requests with bar codes is presented. Physical product request bar codes are added to plural 3D modeling programs, including Building Information Modeling (BIM) programs, and digital and paper copies of product swatches, product cards, product sheets, product pages, product catalogs, and/or or standards books, and/or other product information sources and/or directly to physical products and/or product samples with a laser. When the bar codes are activated, architecture, design or construction physical products and/or product samples are automatically added to a shopping cart for electronic purchase and/or requested without charge.

Abstract: A method and system for automatically hosting, indexing, searching and distributing of construction details in modeling program workflows. Product component attributes, one or more indexes and plural different kinds of links are created to allow construction details to be organized, located and searched. The component attributes, one or more indexes and plural different kinds links allow a first, electronic one-to-many, general-to-specific, choice pathway and a second electronic many-to-one, specific-to-general, choice pathway to locate, view, download and distribute construction details from a web-site or directly within a three-dimensional (3D) or other dimensional modeling program. The one or more indexes and plural different kinds of links also include links from the components in a construction detail to actual physical product information such as product sheets.

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.
