3/3 Avus AR view of work after backfill
Augmented reality (AR) technology that helps workers visualise underground utilities is being trialled by contractor Morrison Utility Services in partnership with Vinci-owned highways specialist Eurovia UK.
The pair are deploying technology developed by Eurovia called Augmented Visualisation of Underground Services (Avus) in work for clients Thames Water and Yorkshire Water.
Avus lets onsite workers map and view underground services via Android smartphones or tablets. The layout of pipes and cables can be viewed in 2D plan form or as a 3D drawing overlaid on the device’s camera view, using real-time AR techniques.
