WatchBuilt invention is based on wearable devices that are installed on safety helmets, eliminating the need for additional manual monitoring activities.
The wearable devices are equipped with 3D scanning technology and other components that enable the acquisition of 3D data in real time during construction. The system automatically identifies elements in the digital model of the building, providing a direct comparison between the planned and actual construction processes. This comparison allows for immediate insight into the status of the project, enabling proactive identification and resolution of potential issues.
​
CONTINUOUS AND FULLY AUTOMATED MONITORING: The system provides complete and continuous automated monitoring of all changes that occur during construction and identifies built elements within the BIM in real time.
​
CUMULATIVE PRESENTATION OF THE BUILDING:
The recording of all changes results in the creation of an "As-built" 4D BIM model, providing a comprehensive view of the building as it is constructed, indicating any deviation from the initial “As-planned” 4D BIM model.
