Figure 1.
A diagram shows benefits, barriers, and implementation strategies of integrating extended reality into construction project management, with a central workflow linking models and cloud software.The diagram is divided into three main sections. On the left, a panel titled Benefits of integrating X R into the C P M lists advantages such as visual assistance, reduced errors, improved efficiency, collaboration, user-friendly interface, accurate scale, faster decision making, cost reduction, portability, and enhanced B I M information retrieval. In the centre, a workflow diagram shows As Design Model and Project Schedule feeding into a four-dimensional Model, connected to Cloud Software. Reality Capturing Technology links to a V R Model, while Device in Built Camera links to an A R or M R Model, both connected through the cloud. Below, a box titled Strategies to Implement X R in C P M includes low-cost hardware use, training and development programmes, evaluation of B I M knowledge, and system analysis. On the right, a panel titled Barriers to implementing X R into the C P M lists challenges such as data loss in cloud systems, additional costs, limited field of view, rapid process changes, difficulty with irregular objects, safety issues with head mounted devices, setup time, lack of expertise, handling large data, preparation requirements, training difficulties, rendering issues, and limited mobile device capacity.
