Video | Watch McAlpine use AR on 1 Broadgate

The AR technology is enabling the project team to identify and resolve issues in real-time, increasing efficiencies and ultimately reducing programme times and enhancing collaboration, according to Sir Robert McAlpine.

In June last year, the contractor began a knowledge transfer partnership with University College London, Innovate UK and XYZ Reality. The partnership seeks to quantify the benefits of AR using XYZ’s Atom headset on a construction site.
