2013

In this year, we kept working on some advanced technologies applying on the process of construction, like Augmented Reality and the visualization of data. We tried to solve the problems might occurring while operated the crane, so we developed a crane simulator named SimCrane 3D+ to help operators get used to it. Besides, we developed an easy-operation to measuring the flow field of the river. We came up with it from thinking of the incon-venience of the traditional way to detecting flow field. 

Accessibility evaluation system for site layout planning
This paper proposed an innovative approach for evaluating accessibility during pre-construction site layout planning. It can present an intuitive and easily understood visualization result which clearly indicated the unsafe parts of the site layout plan.
這份論文提出一項能評估施工前的場地設計，是否達到無障礙的創新方法。這項方法將場地設計中不安全的部分清楚地視覺化呈現，讓人能簡單且直觀地發現問題並改善。

SimCrane 3D+
Kinesthetic vision generates corrected perspective images based on the head position of the viewer. Stereoscopic vision is to generate separated images for left and right eyes respectively. A crane simulator with kinesthetic and stereo-scopic vision known as SimCrane 3D+ was developed and implemented to achieve the goal. We performed user tests to evaluate the proposed system by both subjective and objective factors.
透過頭上的感應器，動覺視野能產生正確的物件角度，也能藉分別投射在左右兩眼的影像達到立體視野，而我們開發出的吊車模擬器 —— SimCrand 3D+ 能同時達到兩種視角。在這項論文中，我們展示許多使用者的測試來評估這項模擬器。
Special issue on the applications of Argument Reality
In this special issue, we have selected thirteen excellent papers that fully cover the wide range of fields in which AR has been implemented. The issue starts with the use of AR in construction education.
我們選出 13 份完整涵蓋 AR（擴充實境）應用層面的傑出論文，用以討論 AR 未來的展望，並以應用在工程教育上的 AR 作為議題開端。

PIV for On-site Flow Field 
We used four parallel laser pointers as ground reference points and a smartphone as a computing core for calculating and demonstrating the flow field of the river. The research verified and showed the feasibility of the device.
我們利用四道平行雷射光作為地面上的參考點，並將智慧型手機作為運算核心，用以計算、展示河流的流場。這項研究將驗證裝置的可行性。
