Deliverables
GPRS delivered point cloud files in .rcs format, a 3D Revit Model, and a FBX file. The client was also able to view the model progress using Autodesk A360, a web-browser application that allows engineers and project teams to work together more easily in an online workspace.
PROJECT APPLICATION
ASK
Task
GPRS 3D laser scanned the Hard Rock Stadium for use in a mixed-reality experience during the 2020 Super Bowl on February 2. Mixed reality is a blend of physical and virtual worlds that includes both real and computer-generated objects. The two worlds are "mixed" together to create a realistic environment.
PROBLEM
It was important to the client that the existing spatial layout was captured with great accuracy. When generating mixed reality experiences, computer-generated objects must precisely interact with the physical environment to sell the realism.
Solution
- The upper and lower stands, field topography, LED display screens, LED ribbon around stadium, two Hard Rock Stadium signs and roof structure were documented with a survey-grade Leica P40 ScanStation.
- In two days onsite, 172 laser scans of precise point cloud data was captured.
- GPRS' team of in-house Mapping & Modeling team quickly generated a 3D Revit model for the client.
- The client planned to use Autodesk Maya, a 3D computer animation, modeling and rendering software to create an augmented reality (AR) simulation.
