  • Publication number: 20240151530
    Abstract: Marking metadata during layout can be time intensive. A robotic device is used to mark out points at a construction site, and an augmented-reality device uses the points for alignment and provides metadata about the points to a user of the augmented-reality device as the user looks at the points.

  • Publication number: 20240151551
    Abstract: A central map can be used in a construction environment to help position devices and receive updates from devices to update the central map. Devices in the construction environment, such augmented-reality devices, laser scanners, total stations, satellite navigation receivers, and others can be used to provide “crowd-sourced” data to update the central map as the construction environment changes.

  • Patent number: 11360310
    Abstract: An augmented-reality system is combined with a surveying system to make measurement and/or layout at a construction site more efficient. A reflector can be mounted to a wearable device having an augmented-reality system. A total station can be used to track a reflector, and truth can be transferred to the wearable device while an obstruction is between the total station and the reflector. Further, a target can be used to orient a local map of a wearable device to an environment based on a distance between the target and the wearable device.
