View large and complex models up to 2GB



Complex models like full processing plants, entire airports or any large-scale buildings (including fittings) can be viewed on BIM Holoview without the frustration of being limited to small size limits. Through Azure Remote Rendering BIM Holoview enables models of up to 2GB to be viewed without performance degradation or the need for sectioning, filtering or polygon reduction.

The model below is 11 million polygons and 380mb file size and is running with no performance degradation on the HoloLens using BIM Holoview and Azure Remote Rendering.


Position a model to within 1cm (1/4 inch) of its actual real-world location

BIM Holoview for HoloLens 2 has been designed to combine accuracy with ease of use. World locking combined with QR code detection provides the ability to accurately position a model to within 1cm of its actual location in the real world.

With the HoloLens 2, QR code detection is built into the device which gives very accurate positional information. Using BIM Holoview you can load and position models to within 1cm of the top left corner of the QR code. The accuracy of model placement is further reinforced by World Locking support which prevents drift as you move through your building.
