建築信息模擬（BIM）於建造業的發展大有潛力。從前的工程設計一直靠圖紙進行溝通，因而流於平面，受到不少限制。今天，業界開始引入 BIM 和混合現實 (MR) 科技，將工程資訊可視化，這令工程的協調、生產力和安全表現都能有所提升。

如要善用BIM模型，就要將它從屏幕投放到真實的施工環境裡，讓人能直接看見，而MR正是將虛擬和真實世界連接起來的最佳方法，它能把虛擬訊息疊加於真實的工作環境中，將BIM模型與工地現場結合及互動，呈現於使用者眼前。

實地檢視 BIM 模型有助工地人員發現施工環境的問題或不協調情況。工程團隊可以預視工作流程，以作出相應的規劃與安全措施。此外，它亦可以顯示隱藏在牆壁或地下的設施，讓工程人員評估潛在風險、避免意外發生。

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is one of the most promising developments in the Construction industry. For a long time, communication concerning design has been restricted because of the single interface methods based on 2D plans and drawings. With the introduction of BIM and Mixed Reality (MR), information can be visualized, offering countless opportunities for improving project coordination, productivity and safety.

To better utilize the BIM models, we need to move it from the screen to the real construction site, allowing the user to engage and interact with the design data more intuitively. MR is the best solution to bridge the gap between the virtual and physical world. It is capable of overlaying synthetic content on the real working environment which can be anchored to and allows interaction with the physical site.

By enabling on-site viewing of BIM content, the site personnel can detect onsite miscoordination issues more effectively. The project teams can preview the work process for safety measures planning. Furthermore, it can make visible the utilities hidden behind the wall or underground, assisting project teams to assess potential risks and prevent accidents.
