MWC 2018: iStaging Announces Partnership With AECOM
BARCELONA, Spain, February 26, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Today, at the Mobile World Congress, iStaging Corp. announced it has entered into a partnership with AECOM APAC Limited, in order to pioneer new Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies for the design and construction of complex infrastructure projects.
iStaging, headquartered in Taipei, Taiwan, and with satellite offices in San Francisco, Shanghai and Paris, is a leading provider of out-of-the-box, real estate-focused AR and VR solutions. AECOM is a premier, fully integrated global infrastructure firm ranked by Engineering News-Record as the No. 1 design firm by revenue for eight consecutive years and recognized by Construction Dive as Company of the Year for the second year in a row.
This new partnership is based on the mutual aspiration of both organizations to develop and deploy advanced AR and VR technologies to further transform the visualization experience, vital for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the design and construction process. Through this collaboration, iStaging can advance its AR and VR solutions by applying them to AECOM’s projects which are among the most complex across Asia Pacific, and globally. Stakeholders of infrastructure projects in remote locations served by AECOM will be able to transcend the distances between their own physical location and that of their project, at all stages and for all team members, improving visualization, decision-making and management processes.
With the significant rise in overseas infrastructure investment across Asia Pacific, at both government and private sector levels, fueled by initiatives such as “Belt and Road,” this partnership has the potential to reduce costs and increase project performance and outcomes. These capabilities will be extremely relevant for both clients and the built environment across Asia, home to the world’s fastest growth rate of urbanization.
