Abstract: In various embodiments a computer-implemented method for providing sustainability insights to a user designing an object. The method includes determining a value of a sustainability metric associated with a design of an object; determining a target value for the sustainability metric; determining an amount of progress made towards achieving the target value for the sustainability metric based on the value of the sustainability metric and the target value for the sustainability metric; and displaying, via a graphical user interface (GUI), a visual indication of the amount of progress made towards achieving the target value for the sustainability metric.

Abstract: In various embodiments a computer-implemented method for providing sustainability insights to a user designing an object. The method includes determining a first value of a sustainability metric associated with a design of an object, displaying, via a graphical user interface (GUI), a visual indication of the first value of the sustainability metric, and detecting a change to the design of the object. The method further includes, in response to detecting the change to the design of the object, determining a second value of the sustainability metric and displaying, via the GUI, a visual indication of the second value of the sustainability metric.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for performing tasks associated with a construction project. The technique includes transmitting to a worker, via a mobile computing device worn by the worker, a first instruction related to performing a first task included in a plurality of tasks associated with a construction project, and transmitting to a light-emitting device a command to provide a visual indicator to the worker that facilitates performing the first task, based on an input received from the mobile computing device, determining that the worker has completed the first task of the construction project, selecting, from a database that tracks eligibility of each of the plurality of tasks, a second task included in the plurality of tasks that the worker is eligible to perform, and transmitting to the worker, via the mobile computing device, a second instruction related to performing the second task.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for reconfigurable spaces. One of the methods includes identifying plan information relating to a space under evaluation. Constraints related to structures associated with the plan information are identified. Input regarding uses or elements to be included in a reconfigurable design for the space is received. A library of elements for inclusion in the space is evaluated, including determining one or more reconfigurable elements that satisfy the received input. A first configuration of a reconfigurable element is determined including a first placement in a first design associated with the space, and the first design in accordance with the first configuration is presented. A second different configuration is determined, including a second placement in a second different design associated with the space, and the second different design in accordance with the second different configuration is presented.
