THE USE OF VIRTUAL REALITY (VR) AS A MEANS F ARCHITECTURAL VISUALIZATION

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №4 (64) December, 2018

The article describes a new approach to architectural visualization using a render in real time. As an example, the authors consider the process of constructing a virtual stage on the basis of a BIM model. The original model was created in Autodesk Revit while the textures and décor elements were finalized in Autodesk 3ds Max and MoI 3d. The article presents in detail the possibility of creating a system of Blueprints visual scripts in Unreal Engine for implementing a full-scale interactive virtual stage. The proposed approach enables a realistic rendering to be created in real time and the interior to be modified in dynamics. It also includes a convenient method for identifying possible collisions.
