Imagine walking a design site before it’s ever built, with grading, buildings, and utilities unfolding around you in full context. Immersive Digital Workplaces make that possible, turning project models into shared experiences that improve communication and bring teams into alignment before construction begins. In this fast-paced, high-level session, three voices from civil design, immersive technology, and construction will share insights from the field. Rather than a technical deep dive, this session offers a big-picture look at how immersive Digital Workplaces are bridging disciplines, reducing errors, and clarifying complex data throughout the project lifecycle. When stakeholders can visualize a design in its environment, they are empowered to make faster, more confident decisions. Join us to explore how immersive workflows support better outcomes from concept through construction.

In this class Kim Lee presents an in-depth case study of the creation of the Hyperspace Madness Trilobot. Lee demonstrates its start as a robotic chassis in Inventor® software, through 2D concept art, and modeling in 3ds Max® software to fabrication using CNC milling, vacuum forming, and fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing. Attendees get a behind-the-scenes view of all the processes that are involved in bringing the bot from digital concept to physical reality.
