3D AR Engineer Workspace Viewer
A platform to view engineering workspaces in 3D and AR
Created on: May 14, 2025
This content has been translated by AI from the original Japanese version.
Overview
This idea is a web application that allows users to view various engineers' workspaces as 3D models. Utilizing 3D technologies to create immersive representations of workspaces, the app also features an AR mode that lets users project these environments into their own physical space. The creation of these models is streamlined through AI tools, enabling efficient reproduction of diverse work environments.
Core Features
- 3D Viewing Mode: Browse through 3D models of workspaces including computers, desks, chairs, monitors, and other equipment
- AR Mode: Use smartphones or tablets to project workspaces into real physical spaces
- Interactive Elements: Click on items within the 3D model to view detailed information and reviews about the equipment
- AI Support: Automatically generate 3D models based on user-submitted photos and descriptions
- Engineer Profiles: Display information about the engineer's specialties and technologies alongside their workspace model
- Community Features: Share comments and ratings with other users
Technology Stack
- Frontend: Modern web framework
- AR Support: Web AR technologies
- 3D Model Generation: 3D modeling tools (with AI integration)
- Backend: Server-side technologies
