Revolutionizing Quality Control in Construction: AI, Spatial Computing, and Augmented Reality in the Deetekt Project
The construction industry has long faced challenges in quality control, from identifying defects to ensuring the smooth integration of components. With the increasing complexity of building materials and structures, traditional inspection methods are no longer enough to keep up with today’s demands. That’s where Deetekt, a cutting-edge project by dilium in collaboration with INDEXLAB – Politecnico di Milano and Focchi Group, comes in.
Deetekt aims to revolutionize quality control for building curtain walls by integrating
Artificial Intelligence (AI),
Spatial Computing, and
Augmented Reality (AR), ensuring higher precision and efficiency at every stage of construction.
The Role of AI and Spatial Computing in Quality Control
By incorporating
AI-powered defect recognition and the advanced capabilities of
Spatial Computing, Deetekt can automatically detect imperfections in building materials as early as the procurement stage. Spatial Computing facilitates the merging of digital and physical environments, allowing real-time, spatially aware inspection of building components. This proactive approach helps prevent defective components from being installed, saving time and costs associated with replacements or delays.
Augmented Reality and Spatial Computing: Enhancing Workflow Efficiency
Spatial Computing integrates seamlessly with
Augmented Reality to improve defect reporting. Workers equipped with AR visors, such as the
Apple Vision Pro, can visualize defects in real-time, directly on the building components. Through Spatial Computing, the AR system is contextually aware of the spatial relationships within the environment, making it easier to map annotations and retrieve data tied to physical objects.
Join Us at SAIE Bologna
At the upcoming
SAIE event in Bologna, Deetekt will be showcased through live demonstrations, including a display of
Apple Vision Pro’s integration with
Spatial Computing and
AI for quality control in construction. Attendees will see how Spatial Computing enhances site inspections, enabling remote monitoring and accelerating workflows.
