Compare Sync Technologies vs. smartAR

SyncTech is committed to delivering cutting-edge solutions that enhance business operations, improve productivity, and lower the expenses and time associated with traditional practices in the construction and building insurance sectors. Their digital twin service portal provides a swift and cost-effective method for accessing both internal and external 3D models or digital twins of properties. By utilizing Reality Capture technology, they generate accurate 3D building models through laser scanning and photogrammetry, which accelerates the claims management process for building insurance while minimizing rework, waste, and delays in construction by effectively documenting existing conditions. Additionally, the Field to BIM or Reverse Engineering service involves creating a Revit or CAD model of an existing structure to facilitate milestone tracking in construction projects. This approach allows teams to conduct virtual inspections, identify potential issues, retrofit buildings, and compare them to the original design, ultimately leading to improved project outcomes. With these innovative tools, SyncTech is transforming the way the construction industry operates, paving the way for a more efficient future.

Designed for organizations that create extensive and intricate prototypes, the aim is to minimize the variety of prototype iterations produced. smartAR™ superimposes a digital counterpart onto a live camera view of a tangible object, ensuring that the CAD model’s scale, placement, and orientation align with the physical item. Users view the digital twin through a tablet, which is closely monitored by an external motion tracking system that observes both its position and orientation. This tracking facilitates remarkable precision when aligning the digital twin with the physical object. As users navigate around the real-world item, the virtual images displayed on the tablet stay consistently fixed in relation to the object. Furthermore, virtual data can be accurately positioned on the real-world object, achieving a precision of better than 3 millimeters in most stationary perspectives. The TGX software from Mechdyne allows for seamless access to high-resolution CAD files from centralized workstations or servers, effectively reducing latency on the tablet, thus enhancing the user experience. This combination of technologies not only streamlines the prototyping process but also ensures that users can interact with their designs in a more effective and realistic manner.
