Description

•    Basic Insulation Unit: Pre-fabricated four-inch thick insulated panel blocks (PBs) with integral cladding that add continuous insulation and seal building facades 
•    Scan-to-BIM software extracts building features from building scans and calculates their dimensions with high accuracy
•    Panelization algorithms solve for the complete set of PBs and trim pieces needed to clad each building, feeding a computer-aided manufacturing process
•    Augmented reality (AR) guides installation of the PB system on each façade, eliminating on-site cutting and greatly decreasing the skill and time required to reclad the building.
