Seven digital dimensions: Renovation 4.0 toolkit presented by Dr. Erika Pärn

As the digital age is maturing at an exponential pace and with it, the need for businesses to increase their capacity for automated data-driven decision making, this talk will present a glimpse into ongoing research initiatives. The purpose of this presentation is to present seven emerging dimensions of digitalisation in the AECO sector, namely: cloud computing; blockchain; robotics; big data analytics; 3D printing; machine learning; and hybrid tools. A practical example of such hybrid systems will be presented in the newly funded H2020 research initiative, called BIMERR. This 4-year research project seeks to create a renovation 4.0 toolkit comprising of an amalgamation of emerging technologies, such as BIM, AR, mixed reality, cloud computing and ML. In an effort to disrupt the traditional modus operandi of the EU renovation market.
