<h2>About UCL Bartlett RC-9: Architecture in Augmented Age</h2>
|

As we immerse ourselves in the rapidly evolving world of Extended Reality, the boundary between man and machine blurs, and portable devices enhance our awareness of our environment. XR has the ability to assist the process, leveraging data previously exclusive to machines to enhance human-machine interaction while enabling a seamless blend of intuitive decision-making and experience that is often lacking in automated construction processes. XR technology can also fundamentally change the way people interact and experience the built environment, enhancing or changing or adding new layers of information to the surrounding environment.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Research Cluster 9 explores how XR technology is changing the way we design, build and interact with our environments. Therefore, ideas such as augmented manufacturing, industrial industrial economic development, or digital platforms for multi-person design and distributed manufacturing, as well as immersive experiences and interactions with the built environment and the metaverse, will be at the core of all research paths.

The actual work carried out in the office ranges from small products to large-scale architectural and urban designs - experts in providing conceptual design solutions. Currently, the office is interested in using augmentation (i.e. AR/VR) to perform complex and precise digitally generated forms. Question the future roles of humans, robots, machines and computers.
