Virtual Design World
Cup
"2nd Student
BIM & VR Design Contest on Cloud"
-Compete on cloud for the most advanced architectural
and civil engineering design using BIM and VR!-
Theme 2012
"Sustainable Design of Marine
City"
This contest is an international design competition for students to compete
amongst each other in designing innovative architecture, bridge and city design
using BIM&VR.
Every year students compete for the top price which is
given to an outstanding work outlining a predefined theme in the aspect of
design, innovative idea, and creativity. They plan and design their work based
on the theme and then run a simulation. Their final model will be presented to
the judges in a form of a script and evaluated.
To assist with the
production, we plan to carry out workshops and seminars. We will also support
the students who will make use of software from now on. Also you can communicate
and collect a lot of information without visiting local area by the exhibition
of various workshop reviews through the Web and the utilization of VR forum ( 3D
cloud BBS ) The script of VR data is required for the final submission and the
judgment is performed on the basis of "VR Cloud judgment". We would like you to
use forum8's BIM software and VR and think our company as a place which will
make your technology and production developed.
